CETP/PEP Propane
The CETP/PEP Program qualifies you for a career in Propane energy. Our program gives you the courses you need for your CT G2 license.
Propane energy is growing more and more popular as homes and businesses look for efficient ways to power furnaces, water heaters, outdoor grills, and appliances. Growing right along with it are the jobs that maintain those systems. CETP/PEP Propane Training from ENTECH will put you right where you want to be -- at the cutting edge of a growing industry. And because the Training Program was developed by the Propane Education & Research Council, students have the backing of the propane industry as they pursue their technical training.
