WEATHERFORD, Texas,
June 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- As
job markets across the United
States continue to struggle in the wake of the COVID-19
outbreak, the impact of the virus on oil production is threatening
severe consequences for the global economy. More than a dozen
oil companies have declared bankruptcy so far in the United States alone, and widespread
industry layoffs are expected to continue.
Perfect Technician Academy (PTA), a Heating, Ventilation and Air
Conditioning (HVAC) technician training school based in the greater
Dallas-Fort Worth area, has taken
notice of the turmoil unfolding in the oil industry and is taking
steps to mitigate it.
The award-winning trade school prides itself on catering to
veterans and active-duty military transitioning to civilian life.
However, Perfect Technician Academy has recently expanded its focus
to include the men, women, and families displaced by oil field
closures in and around Texas.
"Many similarities exist between the oil and HVAC industries.
That's largely why Perfect Technician Academy has garnered a
variety of new students from oil-heavy states around the U.S. in
recent months," says Brett Hobson,
Owner of Perfect Technician Academy.
"Having your livelihood pulled out from under you and beginning
a new career path is an incredibly stressful situation to be in.
When people learn about the nature of this industry though, how
rewarding, lucrative, and pandemic-proof it is, they typically are
left wishing they'd come to the school sooner," Dr. Thomas Moorman, Provost and School Director of
Perfect Technician Academy explains.
Perfect Technician Academy is truly making a difference by
fighting for the well-being and stability of those most in need
during this pandemic. PTA serves as a reminder that while
challenging times may persist, opportunity always exists for those
who are willing to pursue it.
