PIQUA, Ohio — Scott Naill is not someone who enjoys talking about himself. If you ask him about his teaching career, he’s likely to turn the topic into a discussion about his amazing advisory board, or what some of his most successful students are doing now. He doesn’t like to be the center of attention, and he certainly won’t mention any of the honors or accolades he’s received. Now Naill will have one more award he can try to avoid talking about.
For 2011, the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) and The NEWS are honoring Scott Naill as the HVACR Best Instructor. He has been teaching for 17 years at the Upper Valley Career Center, and his commitment to go the extra mile for his students and his program set him apart from the crowd. Naill is dedicated to modeling professional behavior to his students, and he is making a tremendous impact on future generations of the HVACR industry.
