    Women's Paid HVAC Internship Program Announced

    March 28, 2024
    Initiative is designed to empower women seeking career opportunities in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning industry.

    Duval & St. Johns County, Florida -- World's Greatest Heating and Air, a local Heating and Air company, is thrilled to announce the launch of the Women of HVAC Paid Internship program. This initiative is designed to empower women seeking career opportunities in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry.

    The inspiration behind this pioneering program comes from the founder, Chrissy Collin’s personal journey. Having graduated from college years ago, she began her career in Training & Development but found herself struggling to make ends meet, even with multiple jobs, including waiting tables. After over a decade, she transitioned into the HVAC industry, where she encountered numerous young men who had chosen to forgo traditional college education in favor of learning a skilled trade. These individuals were achieving six-figure salaries at an age when she had been a struggling college graduate.

    One glaring observation she made was the lack of female representation in the HVAC industry. Research revealed that less than 3% of the workforce in HVAC is women. This realization led her to the question, "Why should the guys make all that money?" Out of this question emerged the Women of HVAC Paid Internship program.

    The Women of HVAC Paid Internship is an extraordinary opportunity for women in Duval and St. John's County to break into the HVAC field. This program will provide paid internships and on-the-job training to equip participants with the skills and knowledge necessary to become successful technicians and installers in the HVAC industry.

    World's Greatest Heating and Air is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment. The company believes that diversity enhances innovation, productivity, and overall success. By launching the Women of HVAC Paid Internship, the organization is taking a significant step towards addressing gender imbalance in the HVAC industry.

    The program is currently accepting applications and plans to begin hiring interns by March 1. Interested candidates are encouraged to apply through the company's website. Successful applicants will receive hands-on training, mentorship, and the opportunity to build a rewarding career in the HVAC field.

    World's Greatest Heating and Air is excited about the positive impact the Women of HVAC Paid Internship program will have on empowering women in the HVAC industry and narrowing the gender gap.
