***NEW - High Efficiency Heat Pump Training - Beginning in September 2025 - FREE***
As the only provider of certificate and degree programs in HVAC Technology on Long Island, SUNY Suffolk is uniquely positioned to prepare the workforce to achieve the level of competency required for success that incorporates new green technologies and prepare them to make immediate contributions to their employers. The new curriculum will build upon existing HVAC offerings and will be developed in collaboration with industry partners who have committed to participating in this project. The result will be a new 105-hour, non-credit course at SUNY Suffolk delivered over a 15-week period. The program will:
- Be provided at no charge to participants over the two-year grant period
- Prepare students to install, commission and troubleshoot the latest technology in the industry
- Will offer a series of stackable credentials targeted to high efficiency systems such as air to air and geothermal, comfort cooling, domestic hot water, hydronics and new A2L refrigerants
- Provide a SUNY Suffolk Completion Certificate in Heat Pump Inverter Technology
- Be offered a non-credit to credit pathway, through challenge exams, where participants will have the opportunity to earn seven college credits, equivalent to the for-credit courses HVA121 Refrigeration and AC and HVA141 Heating Systems, to be applied toward a one-year certificate or along a two-year degree pathway
- Offer at least one and up to eight certification exams accredited through the ESCO Institute

Offshore Wind Careers Workshop:
KidWind Challenge:Suffolk County Community College in collaboration with Stony Brook University and Brentwood High School are presenting a KidWind Challenge. The KidWind Challenge is a hands-on design competition that engages students in STEAM. During this in-person event, more than 50 students will design and construct small wind turbines that they test in a wind tunnel, and meet with a panel of judges to present their design process and demonstrate their contextual knowledge of clean energy. In preparation for the challenge, nine teachers participated in a hands-on workshop to help grow educators’ knowledge about clean energy while also getting quality materials into their hands. The workshop introduced educators to the fundamentals of clean energy, project-based and inquiry-led pedagogies, and provide details about participating in the KidWind Challenge. These teachers will now incorporate these skills into their curriculum.
Summer High School Offshore Wind Turbines Class:
The Summer High school Offshore Wind Turbine class is designed to introduce high school students to the burgeoning field of wind energy. The summer of 2024, the College held two separate summer sessions and provided students with a comprehensive, hands-on learning experience.
