The course is self-paced and you may take as long as necessary to complete it. There is no time limit for completion. However, each block of material will be released (over 4 weeks) on each Monday, and a live Q&A will be scheduled for that content the following Monday @ 11 AM EST (except when conflicting with holidays) with all students welcome to attend.

You will have at least one year access to the course and community through the HVAC Pro Blog Courses platform (hosted on FreshLearn).

Log in to HVAC Pro Blog Courses by clicking Sign Up/Login in the the upper right of this page. Course videos are not available for download and must be viewed through the platform. Some items, such as course worksheets, will be available to download.

The amount of time needed for this course can be up to the participant, but at least 4 hours a week? Luckily the recorded content ranges from 4-15 minute videos, and the articles that support are probably 5 minute reads. There are a few longer videos for Manual Zr, and when we touch on A/C & Heat Pump Equipment Selection in Manual S, but the time commitment for the entire week should still be the same.

This Masterclass does not use any software. The Manual J content is mostly related to Site Survey and understanding what exactly the inputs need to be for the software of your choice - in your case Wrightsoft.
