No sponsor in Pennsylvania has published a wage scale, so we can name the 1 registered apprenticeship below but not what they pay. The trade schools further down publish their prices, which is why they look more complete. That is a gap in the public record, not a verdict on which is the better deal.
What the job pays in Pennsylvania
$62,400median, per year
This is what heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration mechanics and installers earn across Pennsylvania, half above and half below. It is an experienced-worker figure, not a starting wage. Nationally the median is $61,010.
