Copeland Hosts Seventh Annual Apprentice Day Event

Copeland held its seventh annual Apprentice Day event on September 27 at Copeland’s Integrated Learning Centre in Brantford, Ontario.
Copeland’s Apprentice Day was developed to strengthen the future of the HVACR industry by fostering innovation and skills development. The HVACR industry faces a “human” shortage. According to recent estimates, over the last decade, on average, there were about 42,500 HVACR job openings each year.
This event was an immersive and interactive experience for HVACR apprentices, students and future industry leaders designed to enhance their understanding of the industry through hands-on learning and expert-led discussions. It focused on three key areas: Copeland compressor troubleshooting, Vilter industrial compressor technology and Copeland refrigeration and building management systems. Apprentices and students had the opportunity to network with industry professionals and leaders, gain valuable insights and make connections to help advance their careers. Nearly 60 apprentices and 20 industry sponsors and Copeland team members were in attendance at this year’s event.
“Apprentice Day is about more than just training; it’s about investing in the future of our industry. Attendees have chosen an industry with a bright future, which deserves our recognition,” said Ryan Garrah, vice president for Copeland in Canada. “The fact that this event sold out so quickly shows just how committed apprentices are to building their careers and how much enthusiasm there is for learning from industry leaders. Copeland is excited to invest in these apprentices to support the growing need for skilled workers in the HVACR trade.”
