Skill Builder Workshops

Go Beyond Basic Repairs. Build Real Skills.

Home Repair Workshops fix small problems.

Skill Builder Workshops build capability.

These workshops are for adults who want a deeper understanding of how their home’s HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems actually work — not just how to patch, tighten, or replace something.

If you’ve ever looked at your AC system, breaker panel, or under a sink and thought, “I wish someone would just show me how this works…” — this is for you.

No experience needed.

All tools provided.

Hands-on, practical, confidence-focused.

Why Skill Builder Workshops Exist

Most people were never taught the fundamentals. Not at school. Not at home.

We fix that.

VoSKILL Skill Builder Workshops bridge the gap between basic DIY and full trade training by teaching you the “why” behind the systems you live with every day.

You’ll learn:

  • The core principles behind HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems

  • How parts work together — comfort, water movement, airflow, circuits

  • How to stay safe

  • How to approach home systems with confidence instead of fear

These are not accredited trade classes. They’re hands-on fundamentals, designed to build the kind of personal capability that makes you safer, more confident, and more competent.

Who These Workshops Are For

  • Homeowners who want to understand their systems

  • Adults thinking about entering the trades

  • Men who want to become more capable, confident, and reliable at home

  • Future VoSKILL Academy students (starting 2026)

  • Anyone who learns best by doing, not by watching videos

If you’ve ever said, “I wish someone would just walk me through this step-by-step,” this is that.

How the Workshops Work

Each subject is taught in three 2-hour blocks:

  • Part classwork (concepts broken down simply)

  • Part hands-on (actual tools, training boards, and system components)

You can take just one block or all three — whatever fits your goals.

Each workshop includes:

  • Tools and materials

  • Real demonstrations

  • Safety instruction

  • Step-by-step coaching

  • Q&A for your real-world questions

Workshops are not drop-in. You must register and pay in advance.

✺ Frequently asked questions ✺

  • No experience at all. These workshops are designed for beginners. We start with simple explanations, introduce tools slowly, and guide you step-by-step.

  • Yes — everything we teach is hands-on. Each block includes short class instruction followed by practical tool time and real training setups so you learn by doing, not watching.

  • Each subject (HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing) is taught in three separate 2-hour blocks.

    You can take all three or pick the ones that interest you.

  • No. These workshops are not accredited and not designed to prepare someone for employment.

    They are confidence-building fundamentals only.

    If you want accredited training, VoSKILL Academy is being developed separately and is currently in the Florida CIE approval process (projected 2026 launch).

  • No. All hands-on work is done on safe training boards or mock systems.

    You’ll learn concepts, tools, safety, and system understanding — not repair procedures.

  • All Skill Builder Workshops are taught in person at the VoSKILL HQ shop in West Palm Beach.

    Tools, materials, and safety equipment are provided.

  • Yes. Everything is built around safety-first learning.

    Electrical is taught using low-voltage systems only.

    Plumbing and HVAC use safe training setups and mock systems — nothing live, nothing pressurized.

  • Absolutely. Many people use these workshops to “test drive” HVAC, Electrical, or Plumbing before committing to long-term training.

    They’re the perfect way to learn what the work feels like and see if it’s something you want to pursue.
