This was purposely created to facilitate access of information for both students and instructors. Aside from that, this may also help the Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Technology graduates at Shinas Vocational Training Center, and for anyone who may want to learn refrigeration and air conditioning technology online. This could serve as their immediate reference for clarification of terms, principles, facts, steps or strategies that they may need in the industry.
For anyone who may reach this website through search engines, this may also provide clarification to end confusions and complexity in learning refrigeration and air conditioning technology. This could be accomplished by providing information about this area of technology that may be seldom discussed in many training centers and vocational schools.
This website is inspired by the reality that today, Internet has really changed the lives and thinking of many people all over the world. The modern advancement in technology has brought humanity into unimagined level of progress in terms of communication and access of information compared to the past 10 years.
Today, any information that we may want to know will become available in just few clicks of our mouse or in just few taps of our finger to our mobile device. Along with this dramatic change as a sign of advancement, many establishments and businesses are trying to make their online presence via websites and online pages to connect to their clients 24/7 or anytime of the day with less human intervention.
In short, if you are dealing with people from different places, and you are providing information for some specific purposes, you can reach those people by capitalizing on the opportunity and wonders created by the Internet.
Since Internet has been made available, for the RAC Department at Shinas VTC, it is quite reasonable to make some information about Refrigeration and Air Conditioning technology accessible online to facilitate instruction and to provide an immediate reference.

In 2006, he went back to Philippines and settled for a couple of years to upgrade his skills in the field of technology studies teaching. To cope up with skills related teaching in Philippines, he went to TESDA and attended NC2 training for Refrigeration and Air Conditioning mechanic, which involves basic commercial refrigeration and split AC (COMRAC) operation and troubleshooting.
During that period, he also took the opportunity to complete the Assessor's Methodology and Teacher's Methodology Training (AMTM) in the field or RAC as a requirement to become qualified skills assessor in Philippines.
