According to a recent RVIA News & Insights report, Truma is continuing its partnership with the RV Technical Institute (RVTI) by offering full product training on the institute’s campus throughout 2026. Heating, combination heating and water, hydronic heating, on-demand water heating and cooling will be covered. The training sessions are complimentary.
There is no required prerequisite to attend these courses. However, attendees who are interested in counting these hours towards their Level 3 Appliance Specialty must already have their Level 1 and Level 2 certifications.
These are two-day courses that fulfill 16 Continuing Education Credits with the RV Technical Institute. Additionally, the course satisfies Truma’s own training requirements.
The partnership is a continuation of the initiative first launched last year, designed to enhance technician training and, ultimately, improve the RVing experience.
The schedule for the RVTI and Truma courses is as follows. Please note these will be taking place at the RV Technical Institute’s headquarters in Elkhart, Indiana (3333 Middlebury St, Elkhart, IN 46516):
- March 17-18
- April 14-15
- June 30-July 1
- Aug. 11-12
- Oct.20-21
- Nov. 17-18

Additionally, Truma is offering three full product training sessions at their own headquarters in Elkhart, IN (2800 Harman Dr, Elkhart, IN 46514). Heating, combination heating and water, hydronic heating, on-demand water heating, and cooling will be covered.
