This is more of an actually "job training" thing, but my organization partnered with them on several things.

Project QUEST, Inc.

It looks like the HVAC program is through St. Phillips...so contact Project Quest or even St. Phillips directly.

Thanks I'll browse and see if they have a saturday, or evening class, but I think Colleges are pretty expensive, but I'll meet lots of young lady's there that I might get sidetracked

St Phillips is probably right..had an uncle that taught it there back 20 or 30 years ago. Texas AM Ext..on 181 South by 410 was doing EPA Certification a few years back.

I was going to suggest St Phillips also. It's pretty expensive. I just looked online and found this website. It is a 4 week training and the tuition is $11,000
Tuition & Fees (http://www.careerinhvac.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=214&I temid=175 - broken link)

Do you know anything about electrical? 1/2 of HVAC is electrical.
HVAC is my husband's field of expertise, I will ask him if he knows of any place. I have a feeling that you won't find any quick/inexpensive courses for HVAC.

2 classes are around $500 and if the classes are at the Southwest Campus of SPC, no need to worry about the pretty ladies. There may be some but not the usual more female dominated college campuses. It is a mostly male dominated campus because of the majors they offer. Make no mistake; there are some ladies majoring in electricial trades, etc.

I looked over ST Philips but to be a dirty student again makes me feel kinda embarrassed that I dropped when i was in college, but in my defense I could not afford 18 grand/semester I am looking for something I can afford to pay in half a year or so I'm just tired of people charging 300-500 bucks to clean some coils. If i ever do plan to do that as a side job, you know just for beer, and MODS I will charge half or 1/4 depending on people's coolness
