Training & Certificates

At JMC Appliance, professional training isn’t a one-time box to check—it’s our culture. Our technicians maintain relevant industry certificates, renew credentials on schedule, and complete ongoing manufacturer courses so we’re ready for the newest appliance technologies found in Chicagoland and the Brick, New Jersey area. From smart/connected appliances and inverter refrigeration to induction cooktops and high-efficiency/heat-pump dryers, we stay current with the service bulletins, diagnostics, and safety procedures that keep your home running safely and efficiently.

Why does this matter? Certified, properly trained techs diagnose faster, protect your appliance warranty when applicable, and complete repairs that last. We follow OEM-informed procedures, perform gas and electrical safety checks, and use quality parts. Below you’ll find a representative list of our current training certificates.
