elearning-training.com, the pioneering learning initiative launched by The Star Refrigeration Group to meet the needs of the air-conditioning, refrigeration and building services sector, has last May and June awarded more than 200 Certificates to students all around the world, with the help of Refrige.com.

The Certificates are recognised for Continuing Professional Development by CIBSE (The Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers) and the CPD International Certification Service (the same certification service used by IOR). The Vapour Compression Cycle module is part of a 4-module course entitled “Refrigeration Fundamentals”. This module tests engineer's understanding of basic theory and the underlying principles behind refrigeration and air conditioning systems. It assists students to keep up to date and gain much of the underpinning knowledge required to get prepared for the forthcoming new F-gas Certification. Free access to the Vapour Compression Cycle module can be obtained by sending a request to This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it or by introducing the Refrige.com promotional code FR0105 into the shopping cart when buying through the initiative’s website.

“I have just completed the Refrigeration Fundamentals course and got my diploma in only a couple of hours. The way it is laid out is excellent and makes learning  more interesting when you do it at your own pace, you don’t miss anything like you would in a classroom as you can keep going back. The commentary is good also as you can just listen and take it all in,” said Andrew, one of the students who received the Diploma. The only requisite to access the e-learning courses is a computer with an internet connection, reveals the iniciative’s press release.
