Half of your time will be spent in our 4,300-square-foot state-of-the-art lab space, working with gas-fired equipment donated by manufacturers specifically for your education.


You will work with a range of appliances, including furnaces, boilers, hot water systems, ranges and ovens.

Upon completion, you will receive an MTEC Propane transcript required for each state license authority.


Most important, our Propane and Natural Gas Technician training will give you a solid knowledge base that will let you hit the ground running in your new career. You will enter your field prepared and confident.
