I had to connect a mouse to my iPad just to come close. In all simulators, trying to tap on the hotspots related to the solution result in a non-reading from the app. As a field technician, I cannot get the application to work without severe massaging, and even then only half the time. This app is supposed to teach technicians to rely on the measurements that their equipment is supposed to simulate out in the field. Soft skills are also included within the simulation. Both modes require learners to diagnose a fault or faults and perform the repair successfully while materials and labor costs are tracked. Challenge Mode has randomized scenarios within three levels: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced. Training Mode has fixed scenarios to aid in familiarizing the user with the equipment, the problem needing attention, and using the simulation.



Two modes within the simulation promote incremental learning: Training Mode and Challenge Mode. Delmar Online Training Simulation: HVAC offers approximately 200 scenarios that allow students to troubleshoot and build diagnostic and critical thinking skills. It challenges learners to master diagnostic and troubleshooting skills across seven pieces of HVAC equipment – Gas Furnace, Oil Furnace, Gas Boiler, Split Residential A/C, Commercial A/C, Heat Pumps, and Commercial Walk-in Freezers. DELMAR ONLINE TRAINING SIMULATION: HVAC is a 3-D, immersive simulation that offers a rich learning experience that mimics field performance.
