The RV Technical Institute (RVTI) continued its technician recruitment campaign at the 97th Annual Future Farmers of America Convention last week. The event in Indianapolis, Indiana, had almost 75,000 attendees including students, school administrators, recruiters and more.
Individuals from all 50 states and Puerto Rico visited the RVTI booth to learn more about the program, the organization said.
“The Future Farmers of America Convention is an incredible event and a great opportunity for us to connect with interested high school students and educate them on RV service technician opportunities,” says the RVTI’s Account Specialist Halle Howard, who attended the event. “Many of these students are already very technically skilled, and some even mentioned they help work on their family RV as a hobby, so it is a great event for us to promote our program and hopefully gain some future skilled technicians.”
Future Farmers of America provides students with a path to achievement in premier leadership, personal growth, and career success through agricultural education, according to a release from RVTI. The convention is an opportunity for students to learn about careers, network and develop their skill sets.
RVTI said it would like to thank Walnut Ridge RV, based in New Castle, IN, for providing the unit that was displayed during the Convention. Walnut Ridge RV is an RV Technical Institute Location Subscriber.
