The National RV Training Academy (NRVTA) today announced the addition of two staff members to enhance communications and material generated by the center.
Codi Johnson was hired to be the creative editor and Melissa Flammia will serve as social media manager. Together, they are responsible for creating consistent messages across multiple channels promoting NRVTA and its courses to train technicians, inspectors and RV owners.
A native of east Texas and is nearing graduation from Texas A&M University – Corpus Christi with a degree in English, Johnson is tasked with repurposing NRVTA videos into written form. She will transcribe the Tech Tip Tuesday videos uploaded to the school’s YouTube channel every week and convert them into blog posts.
All of the NRVTA training videos and home study courses are being redone to improve video quality and include up-to-date technical information. When work is completed on the nearly 50 videos, Johnson will repurpose them into written textbooks and PDF training materials for use by students undergoing hands-on training at the NRVTA campus.
Eventually, Johnson will develop a monthly newsletter that will become a professional e-zine available to NRVTA graduates and prospective students to address continuing education information, new products and services as well as interesting data pertinent to the RV industry.
“We want people to understand NRVTA is not just some little out-of-the-way technical school somewhere in Texas, but rather a state-of-the-art, government-certified training center serving professionals throughout the United States and Canada,” said Johnson.
“We want people to understand that students don’t just come here to learn how to fix their own RVs, but that they can build an entire future around what is taught in NRVTA classrooms and hands-on labs,” she added. “My goal is to create material others can share with business associates, staff and even customers to provide real value for evaluating and maintaining recreation vehicles.”
