Seminar overview

This short-format class combines EPA exam preparation with practical refrigerant-handling discussion, so students leave better prepared for both the test and the field. You take the approved, proctored exam on the same day.

If you’re already confident in the material and only need the exam, call the office to ask about current open-testing options.

What the seminar covers
  • Core concepts plus Type I, Type II, and Type III exam prep.
  • Recovery procedures, refrigerant handling, oil changes, and charging basics.
  • Current field expectations around compliance and safe work practices.
  • Test-taking strategy and common trap-question patterns.
  • An approved, proctored EPA 608 exam at the end of the session.
Who this course is best for

Students entering the trade, techs who need certification to legally purchase and handle refrigerants, and anyone who wants structured review before testing.

Already got EPA 608 but need a specific type upgrade (I → II, etc.)? Call and we’ll route you to the right option.
