Students at a Glance
Confirmed students only. "Verified" means they passed the Skill Exam and their EPA 608 card was checked. "Hired" counts students an employer has hired through Skill Ready Techs; hire rate is hired ÷ signed up.
Invite Students
Students who sign up with your link, or enter your code on their Profile, are linked to your school and confirmed automatically.
Benefits for your program
Your students already work hard to learn the trade. Skill Ready Techs helps them prove it to employers — and helps you see the results.
Real placement numbers
Your dashboard counts students signed up, verified and hired through Skill Ready Techs, with a hire rate and 12-month charts — useful for advisory boards, program reviews and recruiting.
Your name on their card
Once we approve your school, confirmed students can show your school’s name and logo on the Tech Verified Card they send to employers.
Effortless sign-up
Share one invite link or code. Students who use it are linked to your school and confirmed automatically — no spreadsheets.
A direct line to employers
Verified students become searchable by HVACR contractors and can apply to jobs on the Job Board with a match score.
Exam prep that matches your curriculum
Students get optional self-paced study modules on refrigeration, electrical, airflow, heating and safety before they sit the competency exam.
Free for everyone
School accounts are free. Technician accounts are free. Only employers pay, so there’s nothing to budget for or approve.
Four steps from classroom to first job
Create your school account
Add your program type, location and contact. You can invite and track students immediately.
Share your invite link
Post it in your LMS, hand out the code in class, or email it. Students who choose your school from the list instead appear for you to confirm.
Students get verified
They upload their EPA 608 card for a hand review and pass the competency exam — with unlimited free retakes.
Track the outcomes
Watch sign-ups, verifications and hires add up on your dashboard as employers bring your students on.
About approval: Skill Ready Techs reviews each school before it appears in the public school list and on student cards. Completing your school profile speeds this up.
What your students get
- A Tech Verified Card that proves their EPA 608 and exam results to any employer
- Visibility to HVACR contractors searching for verified technicians
- A Job Board, messaging and interview scheduling in one place
- Control over their privacy: they choose whether your school shows on their card, and their exam score is never shown to employers
For instructors & program directors
Does this replace our curriculum or certification testing?
No. Skill Ready Techs doesn’t train or certify technicians. It verifies the EPA 608 card your students already hold and tests their working knowledge with a competency exam, then connects them with employers.
Which students count on our dashboard?
Only students confirmed as yours — through your invite link or code, or by you confirming their request. “Verified” means they passed the exam and their EPA 608 card was checked. “Hired” counts students an employer hired through Skill Ready Techs.
Can we see students’ exam scores?
No. Scores stay private to the student. You see whether a student is verified, not how they scored.
What kinds of programs can join?
Community and technical colleges, trade schools, high school CTE programs, union and JATC apprenticeships, employer training programs and online programs.
Is there any cost?
No. School and technician accounts are free. Employers pay for hiring tools.
