Plumbing Technology

This program offers students the opportunity to learn valuable employment skills in a high demand and high wage field. In this age of concern for the protection of the environment, an understanding of the proper installation techniques for water, drainage, and heating systems is necessary for today’s plumbers. Students will learn the proper installation and maintenance of these systems in the classroom and laboratory settings. Local, state, and national codes will be introduced and applied with hands-on lab activities. Successful completion of this two year program will allow the student to skip the first year of the NH Apprenticeship program leading up to licensure as a master plumber.
