PLUMBING AND HVAC TRAINING AT HOME! With a shortage of trained plumbers, demand has never been higher, so whether you want to get into the trade, or you're already a plumber and want a formal certification, the ICS (International Correspondence Schools) Plumbing course is a great way to get the skills you need.  This course gives you a well-grounded understanding of everything from common plumbing problems to hot and cold water systems.

The ICS Refrigeration, Heating & Air Conditioning training course will give you the practical skills and knowledge that can lead to a well-paid job. Learn how to service systems, as well as the basics of electrical systems and heat transmission.  Since refrigeration, heating and air conditioning systems are a vital part of everyday life - you find them everywhere. There's always a demand for well trained people with the skills to build and repair them.

Both of these courses will give you the necessary knowledge to work in the plumbing or HVAC industries.

All ICS students have their own personal tutor to help with course work and with any questions that may arise. In addition, Student Advisors are available by email or phone for all the practical advice you may need - so ICS is really with you 100%. You'll also have access to the ICS online Student Community, where you can interact with other students, browse the resource library and manage your account.
