The RV Technical Institute (RVTI) provides the only industry-backed training curriculum and RV technician certification and career path. This week, the group has announced upcoming in-person classes.
According to a News & Insights report of the RV Industry Association (RVIA), the RVTI technician training course is a hands-on, competency-based course created by RVTI staff and experts from manufacturers, suppliers, dealers, and independent technicians areas in the RV industry.
The launch of the program’s subscription model allows RV dealerships to educate all their technicians through the online program or in-person at the RVTI headquarters in Elkhart, Indiana for $1,200 for each dealership location.
Individuals, whether mobile technicians or those seeking to enter into the field, have the option to pay $300 per year. The plan also grants access to the RVTI Level 1 and Level 2 online training and in-person classes in Elkhart.
