Refrigeration Technician Course: Structured training on new F-Gases and flammable refrigerants

In an ever-evolving regulatory environment and with the progressive diffusion of low-GWP refrigerants and flammable fluids, technical training becomes a strategic element for those working in the HVAC/R sector.

To meet this need, Centro Galileo offers the new Refrigeration Training Course , a structured training program that supports technicians in professional development on regulatory aspects, safety, design and system management.

A course structured on several modules

The program is developed through various training sessions dedicated to the topics that are central to refrigeration technicians today:

• New F-Gas regulation
• Use and management of HFOs and low-GWP refrigerants
• Safety and application of the EN378 standard
• Management of A2L and A3 refrigerants
• Regulatory impacts on design, installation and maintenance
• Technical requirements and operational responsibilities

The aim is to provide a comprehensive overview of the technical and legislative framework currently shaping the commercial and industrial refrigeration market.

Dates and calendar

The program will begin in March 2026 , with a series of meetings scheduled over the following months, structured progressively to allow for continuous and consistent training.

Each module delves into a specific area, combining:

• regulatory update
• technical analysis of new generation refrigerants
• real-world application cases
• operational instructions for the safe management of systems

Why it's a key moment for the refrigeration engineer

The revision of the F-Gas standard and the growing use of flammable refrigerants are significantly changing the daily work of technicians. Charge calculations, risk assessments, installation requirements, ventilation of plant rooms, and maintenance procedures are now central elements of plant management.

A structured path allows you to:

• operate in compliance with regulations
• reduce technical and legal risk
• improve the quality of customer service
• strengthen your professional competitiveness

The Refrigeration Course fits in with this direction, offering targeted training that is consistent with the current challenges of the sector.
