Do you really need to pay $15k a year to learn HVAC from guys with PhDs in Theology?

  > Do you really need to pay $15k a year to learn HVAC from guys with PhDs in Theology? An incredibly ignorant and uneducated comment that’s unnecessarily dismissive. It took two seconds to confirm on their website that your comment is wrong. Not all their faculty is theology

    It is still significantly more expensive than existing Salesian programs. There’s definitely an ideological component here they expect someone will pay for.

    Yes, it's only half theology degrees - there's also a philosophy and a history degree. The only ones actually related to the trades are two guys with no listed degree. One says "Math and Engineering", and other just says the single word "carpentry". Sounds like exactly the qualifications I'd want for an expensive HVAC certification...

    I think you're wrong about this, and the parent comment makes a valid point about the credentials of the instructors at this organization, which appears to have as much a political mission as it does an educational mission. It's also priced higher than a community college, but lacks accreditation or, presumably, the facilities of a typical CC.
