LG Expands Its Global HVAC Training Network to Develop Locally Tailored Expertise

The company fosters sustainable growth by empowering local talent and advancing technical excellence in the HVAC field

LG Electronics (LG) is strengthening the competitiveness of its heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) business by expanding its global training infrastructure. Through its growing network of LG HVAC Academies, the company is establishing new facilities and upgrading existing ones in key markets such as Thailand, China, Indonesia, and France. Each academy offers specialized training programs designed to meet the specific needs of local professionals and industries.

In January 2025, LG officially inaugurated a new HVAC Academy in Bangkok, Thailand. Relocated from the Thonburi service center to the Sathon business district, this new facility is certified by the Thai Department of Skill Development and can train up to 1,700 HVAC professionals annually. Its comprehensive curriculum covers various areas, including design, installation, maintenance, troubleshooting, and safety control of heating and air conditioning systems. Graduates who successfully pass the final assessments receive nationally recognized technical certifications.

In March, LG opened its second HVAC Academy in China, adding a new facility in Shenzhen to complement the existing Tianjin site, which was reopened in 2023. Located in one of China’s leading innovation and industrial hubs, the Shenzhen Academy spans 220 square meters and includes lecture rooms, a showroom, and a connected home space. This facility will play a crucial role in promoting LG’s strategic HVAC offerings and enhancing customer engagement in the Chinese market.

Also in March, LG reopened its newly relocated and expanded HVAC Academy in Jakarta, Indonesia. Now situated in the southern part of the city, this two-story facility features classrooms and practical training areas on the ground floor, as well as a product exhibition hall on the second floor showcasing HVAC solutions for residential, commercial, and hospitality applications. The third floor houses Hi-M Solutek, LG’s training partner specializing in maintenance training. This hands-on, practical environment enables local dealers and partners to enhance their technical skills and service excellence.

In Europe, LG inaugurated its new HVAC Academy in Lyon, France, in mid-May 2025. As LG’s second training center in France after the Paris academy, the Lyon facility offers 288 square meters of classroom space, hands-on training areas, and a dedicated showroom. An adjacent LG office will work closely with the academy to support the company’s regional development.

LG’s HVAC Academies are critical platforms for technical training and business support, playing a key role in the company’s global B2B strategy. By the end of 2025, LG aims to operate 70 academies worldwide, collectively training approximately 37,000 HVAC professionals each year.

“Our global educational infrastructure is designed to foster mutual growth, helping local talent excel while strengthening LG’s leadership in the global HVAC market,” said James Lee, president of LG Eco Solution Company.
