With the shortage of good mechanics and emergency vehicle technicians, hands-on training is more important than ever. Technology is running ahead of the people who are trying to repair any kind of vehicle. The HEAT Association is an organization geared towards training Emergency Vehicle Technicians. Fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars need the best trained techs in the field. Come join us at HEAT and help build the organization whose mission is to train and equip the best EVT’s in the country. The HEAT board has a current election for a board member. If you share an interest in the emergency repair industry and want to dedicate some time to helping others continue industry education, awareness, and professionalism, then consider joining the HEAT board. If you are an EVT in our industry, shop support staff, shop manager, or anyone else in the emergency vehicle industry you are who we are seeking for input on making our industry better. Please consider serving our board with other industry professionals to guide HEAT in its next chapter.
