ARLINGTON, Va. - HVACR instructors have a responsibility to make sure that their students are competent enough to enter the field and go to work for a contractor. But that is not the only challenge facing instructors today. Trainers from secondary to post-secondary programs are being hit with a number of issues, including possible cuts in funding for technical education.
Approximately 150 instructors attended the Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute's (ARI's) Eighth Annual Instructor Workshop to discuss issues that could have a tremendous effect on HVACR programs across the country.
