The RV Technical Institute (RVTI) made a notable impact at the 2025 NTP-STAG Expo held earlier in Aurora, Colorado, by expanding its network of partnerships.
This annual distributor-exclusive event, which took place on January 21, showcased new manufacturer products, offered educational seminars, and created opportunities for industry professionals to connect.
The institute seized this platform to engage with potential Location Subscribers and Authorized Learning Partners, reinforcing its commitment to addressing the industry’s technician shortage.
In a bid to enhance collaboration with educational institutions, RVTI invited Littleton Public Schools to participate in the event. This initiative aims to promote the institute’s training program to more high schools, encouraging them to integrate the curriculum and equip students with the skills needed for careers as RV technicians.
“We’re thrilled to expand our partnership with EPIC Campus to offer a semester-long Level 1 course,” Justin Rickett, senior manager of Recruitment for RVTI, said in a News and Insights report of RVIA.
“This initiative allows us to integrate our curriculum into educational institutions, inspiring the next generation of RV technicians. We’re grateful to NTP-STAG for showcasing this mission at their Expo,” Rickett added.
The partnership between RVTI and Littleton Public Schools first launched in 2024 with the integration of the Institute’s Level 1 curriculum into EPIC Campus, a Littleton high school program designed to offer hands-on learning opportunities.
Eight junior and senior students participated in the inaugural session, gaining practical skills in RV maintenance and repair through a curriculum that combines innovative technology with real-world applications.
Building on this success, the institute announced plans to expand its partnership with EPIC Campus further. Starting this fall, the campus will host a semester-long Level 1 course exclusively for Littleton students.
