Heavy Equipment Colleges of America (HEC) announced that it has acquired the National RV Training Academy (NRVTA), a nationally recognized leader in RV technician training.
The acquisition marks a strategic expansion of HEC’s mission to strengthen and diversify skilled-trade education across high-demand industries, the company said.
NRVTA will become a part of HEC’s growing trade education portfolio, extending its footprint into RV service, maintenance and technical training as demand continues to rise alongside the growth of outdoor recreation and mobile living across the United States.
“This acquisition is a natural evolution of our mission to support the essential trades that keep America moving,” said Cory Albano, CEO of Heavy Equipment Colleges of America. “The National RV Training Academy’s hands-on, industry-driven approach aligns seamlessly with our mission. By bringing NRVTA into the HEC portfolio, we’re expanding access to high-quality training, opening new career pathways and addressing the growing nationwide demand for skilled technicians.”
Founded with a focus on real-world instruction and industry-ready outcomes, NRVTA has trained thousands of RV technicians to enter the workforce with confidence and competence. Under HEC’s ownership, the academy will gain access to expanded curriculum development, operational support and long-term growth initiatives while maintaining the instructional quality and student-first approach that have defined its success.
The acquisition reinforces HEC’s broader strategy to build a comprehensive ecosystem of trade education programs that align directly with employer needs and economic realities. By expanding into RV technician training, HEC continues to diversify its offerings while staying true to its core mission: elevating skilled trades and empowering individuals with careers that offer stability, purpose and upward mobility.
Heavy Equipment Colleges of America is a nationally accredited school that has been training heavy equipment operators for nearly two decades. With multiple campuses across the U.S., HEC offers industry-leading education programs designed to equip students with the skills and certifications needed to operate a wide range of heavy machinery, including bulldozers, excavators and cranes.
