A news story in the RVIA Newsletter this week caught my attention. It was the story of Krystal LaMar graduating from the very first all-women's Level 1 Certification class held at the RV Technical Institute in Elkhart, IN.
Michael, already a home inspection professional, expanded his knowledge and business skills and became a certified RV Inspector through a different program. Together they hit the road and took the children with them. Michael did inspections and RV service work while Krystal did the office (on wheels) work.
Soon, Krystal received an email about a scholarship for the above-mentioned pilot women's class at RVTI. She applied and was accepted. She wanted to work on the RVs along side Michael. While at the class she met many of the RV Women's Alliance leaders and was amazed at what they have accomplished with their group and the networking opportunities.
Fast forward, Michael completed the RVTI Level 1 and 2 certifications and Krystal is currently enrolled in Level 2 hybrid program. She is doing weekly check ins with an instructor and will attend the 12th week in person to finish her class.. When RVTI was launched, its mission was to showcase the incredible career opportunities for RV service technicians. This is just one example of how well the program is working.
