What Our Students Say

“Rob Stewart was great at explaining everything taking his time to repeat stuff as needed and making sure we where well prepare for the test.”

William Blue
“Just finished up the PHTA Certified Service Technicians course at the 2023 Vegas PHTA Conference. Rob Stewart was our instructor, and his knowledge was extraordinary, real world in the trench’s knowledge. Academics have their place, but this course needed an instructor with real world experience and that is what we got. Rob’s style of teaching is a comfortable blending of scientific facts and years of direct experience. I would not have passed this demanding class with a lessor instructor. Thanks Rob. “

Rob was great at explaining, patient and took the time to go over things until I understood correctly. This was extremely important to me. For this extra attention to detail, I’d offer a 6th star if I could.

Thanks Rob,
See you in the fall for my renewal.
