New HVAC Engineer Advice
(OP)
I'm a newly graduated mechanical engineer. My college had two basic classes related to the HVAC field. My searches have shown that there are classes out there for further education in the HVAC field, but most of those classes are expensive. My question is what are some good/cheap classes that you would recommend for a long career in the HVAC field?

The answer is ASHRAE. Go to their meeting, find a mentor, join their YEA and check out their self learning books. Not very expensive, they teach the fundamentals and you learn at your own pace

You have to register, but does not cost anything to look.

Did you learn any building energy modeling in school? If not, I suggest you learn some eQuest, Energy Plus, or other. EP is much more "powerful" than eQuest, but learning curve is longer. Nowadays, knowing how to model buildings is a becoming a very valuable asset for a young HVAC engineer.
