June 12, 2024 - HVAC Excellence announce today that Palm Beach State College in Lake Worth, Florida has been granted programmatic accreditation of their HVACR Technology Program.
In 1933, with unemployment at 25.2 percent, Franklin Roosevelt was inaugurated as the 32nd President, Albert Einstein emigrated to the United States, and Florida opened its first community college, Palm Beach State College. While much has changed in the nearly 100 years since its founding, the college's mission of providing a comprehensive education remains steadfast.
With overwhelming change underway in the HVACR industry, the faculty and staff sought to assure their employer partners that their program was staying current with these developments. To validate that their program met nationally established standards, they decided to pursue third-party accreditation.
Programmatic accreditation, an independent, non-governmental third-party review, ensures that educational programs meet and exceed established standards of excellence. These standards guarantee that students receive the highest quality training necessary for success in the industry.
Achieving programmatic accreditation involves submitting a comprehensive self-study demonstrating compliance with all required standards. The accreditation review board compares the self-study to accepted standards. Upon approval, onsite evaluation assessors visit the school to verify compliance with established standards.
