Building services programs are usually found within engineering departments. Studies often focus on the basics of mechanical and electrical engineering to give students the ability to develop skills in creating comfortable, sustainable and energy-efficient buildings.

Individuals who are interested in pursuing highly skilled careers may want to start by earning an associate degree at a community college or university. As students earn their degrees, they often expand their knowledge and worldview, as well as increase their professional qualifications.

Part time learning allows one to obtain part-time degrees even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at his or own pace, gradually accumulating credits which count towards final qualification.
