Appliance Repair

Appliance Maintenance Technology

The Appliance Repair program is designed to help students develop technical knowledge and skills related to the installation, repair, and maintenance of major appliances. Students will learn details about servicing appliances, but with an emphasis on making repairs in a safe, efficient, and productive manner. Students will develop skills in recognizing and testing the components, interpreting the schematic wiring diagram and tracing the sequence of operation, interpreting fault codes, adjusting the appliance for optimum efficiency, and performing annual maintenance. In addition, students will learn terminology, energy saving tips, technological advancements, tools and test instruments used in the trade, plus more.

This program consists of six courses:

  1. Range Maintenance
  2. Refrigerator Maintenance
  3. Dishwasher Maintenance
  4. Washer Maintenance
  5. Dryer Maintenance

Courses are geared towards self-paced learning that will give students "maximum exposure" in maintaining appliances. When computed, the course lessons consists of 200 hours of specialized technical training: 150 hours of online training, followed by 50 hours of OJT (On-the-Job Training) through an employer.

Graduates will be awarded a Technical Certificate in Appliance Repair Technology.
