HARDI Training Courses Earn North American Technician Excellence Certification
Four of Heating, Air-conditioning & Refrigeration Distributors International’s training courses have officially been certified by North American Technician Excellence, a certification organization for HVACR technicians. The milestone means that HVACR professionals — including technicians and distributor employees — can now earn continuing education hours toward their NATE certification renewal by completing select HARDI courses.
The newly NATE-certified HARDI courses include:
- Intro to HVAC
- Intro to Refrigeration
- Fundamentals of HVAC
- A2L Technology and Transition
While NATE certification is primarily aimed at technicians, distributors stand to gain considerable value from NATE-accredited training. Employees with a strong technical foundation are better equipped to recommend products, solve customer problems and build trust — creating a competitive advantage in an evolving HVACR marketplace.
HARDI’s newly certified courses count toward the 16 CEHs required every two years to maintain NATE certification — eliminating the need to retake the exam and making it easier to stay current with industry standards and technologies.
