The following was shared in the RV Industry Association (RVIA)’s News & Insights report.
Sparky Life Podcast, a show hosted by Lia Lamela, shares inspiring stories and points of view every Thursday by journeymen and women who build the things that make lives work.
RV Technical Institute’s Executive Director Curtis Hemmeler joined Lamela on the show to share how the RV technician career pathway is a viable, diverse, lucrative and fulfilling career choice.
Lamela referenced this pathway as “the hidden gem” of the trades.
Episode highlights include:
- “We’re discussing a career that’s part technician, part adventurer and 100% game changer — it’s the world of RV techs.”
- “This is high stakes, high skills, high rewards.”
- “The RV industry is a forgiving industry” in reference to RVTI’s partnership with Windham School District and several other correctional facilities to provide opportunities to incarcerated women.
