The RV Technical Institute (RVTI), in partnership with Littleton Public Schools, will host its RV Industry Open House on Wednesday, Oct. 8, at the EPIC Campus in Littleton, Colo.
The event, scheduled from 6 to 7:30 p.m. MT, is designed to showcase career opportunities in the RV industry.
According to a News and Insights report of RVIA on September 9, the Open House will also mark the launch of the institute’s first high school RV technician certification program.
Housed at the EPIC Campus, a career and technical education center, the program will give students practical training in RV service along with pathways in aerospace, construction, and business.
By introducing an RV curriculum into the school, the institute and its partners aim to address the industry’s need for skilled service technicians while building a pipeline of future professionals.
Organizers expect an audience of 500 to 1,000 people, including students, parents, educators, and elected officials at the local, state, and national levels.
For suppliers and industry partners, the event provides a platform to present career opportunities and connect with the next generation of workers.
Vendors will be provided a six-foot table for displays, with electricity available on request in limited quantities. Companies are encouraged to use tabletop displays, pop-up banners, mobile exhibits, and branded giveaways to engage attendees.
There is no cost to participate, though space is limited. The registration deadline for vendors is Friday, Sept. 26, with setup scheduled to begin at 4 p.m. on the day of the event.
The event will take place in the EPIC Campus courtyard at 190 E. Littleton Blvd., with indoor space available in case of poor weather.
The partnership between Littleton Public Schools and the RV Technical Institute began last year. With the assistance of Windish RV, the Institute’s Level 1 curriculum was introduced at the EPIC Campus, giving students early access to training in RV service.
