GOETTL’S INAUGURAL PROTECH BOOT CAMP CELEBRATES 100% GRADUATION RATE

Next Generation Plumbers and HVAC Techs Celebrated at Ceremony

In a ceremony that took place Friday, May 3, Goettl Air Conditioning & Plumbing celebrated the graduating class of the company’s inaugural ProTech Boot Camp. Tailored for individuals with little or no experience in the trades, the paid 8-week training program took only 16 candidates: eight plumbers and eight HVAC techs. The program achieved a 100 percent graduation rate, and all students were offered full-time jobs with Goettl.

“I really hope this boot camp continues,” says graduate Kalif Silva-Giersdorf. “I would like other people to have this opportunity as well because it really helped me out, and I’m really grateful for this program.”

“[The program] is meant to teach our folks the basics so that they have a good, strong understanding, and then we will help them to grow through the Goettl Academy and on-the-job training so they can have the careers they are looking for,” says John Hudson, ProTech Boot Camp Training Facilitator.

Among graduation attendees were Ken Goodrich, Goettl’s Chairman and founder, and Ken Evans, member of Nevada’s Governor’s Workforce Development Board.

“We are thrilled to celebrate all these young men and women who put in the hard work over the past couple of months to embark on a rewarding career journey. We are blessed to have them join our Goettl family. HVAC and plumbing work involves helping people live and work in a safe and comfortable environment with access to clean water and air. These trades are essential, and employment prospects are expected to burn brightly for quite some time,” says Goodrich.

The program’s comprehensive training took place at Goettl’s state-of-the-art training facility in Las Vegas, offering a blend of classroom lectures, hands-on labs, and invaluable field experience with seasoned professionals.

Our AC went down for the upstairs unit. We have a maintenance plan through another company but they do not provide 24/7 service. I called Goettl and I am so happy I did. Jesus Gloria was out within a few hours. I was called to confirm the appointment window. Then texted with the photo attached so I would know who my technician was and the link to track their arrival. Jesus was so professional and explained everything to make sure I understood. He took photos and videos to make sure I could see what he was talking about. Then showed me the photos after the repairs. I am so impressed with this experience. The company very clearly communicates how important customer satisfaction is to them. A+++ service and Jesus did an amazing job. I will definitely consider their maintenance plan in the future which also includes routine plumbing inspections and flushing for the same price other companies charge for HVAC services alone.

I called Goettl to get a second opinion on a/c repair options or replacement. Peter Medelez conducted a very thorough system check and confirmed all the same issues previously identified but found an additional issue; tipping the scale to full replacement. We appreciated his professionalism and knowledge: answering all our questions and explaining the issues and options. We ultimately chose Goettl for the replacement option due to their price and professionalism.

William and Cameron were knowledgeable, friendly, professional, respectful and put on plastic booties over their shoes when they came into the house. Our pets were comfortable with them and that says a lot. We will definitely ask for them again in the future if our AC has any issues.
