 |  "Career Change"
, posted Mon 23 Jun 09:51:  
After 20+ years in the printing trade, I've decided to change careers. I live in NJ and planning to enroll at Lincoln Tech for the 13 month course in HVAC. The course will run Tuesday -Thursday 7:30am - 1:30pm, my plan would try to work part time & weekends for a company to get some hands on.
My questions are...
(A)My current wage is about $30 per hour, how long before I will get close to that range?
(B)Any thoughts on the school?
(C)What is my chance of finding partime work in this field flexible enough.
Thanks

I just found out our County Tech Scool offers a course for about $8,000. With some very good reviews, I waiting on a course description catalog & will tour after the holiday.
My goal is to relocate down south NC area in 2-3 years & with some luck start my own business.
