Where a heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration engineering technician can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration engineering technician already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration engineering technicians aid in the design of devices which provide heating, ventilation, air conditioning and possibly refrigeration in buildings. They ensure the equipment complies with environmental standards. They handle hazardous materials used in the systems, and ensure safety precautions are in place.

Note

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration engineering technician already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
