Student Testimonial

The career services department was amazing. They rebuilt my resume, applied to jobs on my behalf, and I started working in solar within weeks of finishing the PV Installer Professional program.

Brian Wilson PV Installer Professional Graduate

I completed the PV Associate program, passed the NABCEP exam, and received support from the career services team with resume building, interview preparation, job search strategy, employer connections, and ongoing coaching. Within a month I was hired as a solar installer.

Michael Thompson PV Associate Graduate

ImmerseLearn gave me real HVAC skills and the confidence to earn my certification. The VR training felt like hands-on practice, making interviews easier because I had already practiced every tool and procedure. After finishing the program, I was hired quickly and now earn $2,200 each paycheck. It truly changed my life for the better.

Keith Frazer HVAC Associate Graduate

ImmerseLearn’s HVAC program built my skills and confidence. VR simulations helped me train on fundamentals, electrical controls, installation, service, and maintenance.

Raul Gonzalez HVAC Associate Graduate

The EV Technician program exceeded my expectations. The practical training, assessments, materials, and platform quality were excellent throughout. I now feel fully confident applying my skills in real job settings. This program delivered exactly what I needed, and I would highly recommend ImmerseLearn to anyone pursuing EV technology.

Ossamah Saleh EV Technician Graduate

My HVAC Associate experience was very positive. The assessments, materials, and platform were excellent, and I feel confident using the skills I learned. I’d definitely recommend ImmerseLearn.

Emily Carter Medical Assistant Graduate

The HVAC program supported my learning and helped build useful skills. The content and materials were solid, though I felt the assessments were too simple and could be more challenging. Adding joystick turning for smaller spaces would improve usability. Overall, it was helpful but could benefit from a few refinements.

James Hawkins HVAC Associate Graduate

The HVAC program has been engaging, clear, and aligned with my expectations. The hands-on components strengthened my understanding. A few assessment questions could be worded more clearly, but overall the experience has been excellent and has increased my confidence in applying the concepts in real-world situations effectively.
