I had a sit-down meeting with the chairwoman of the local university board, where I pitched her my instructorship program idea.
At this point in my job, I don’t handle a lot of the afternoon-to-day operations.
I have a crew of techs, and an office of workers, who manage the company for me. After putting in 30 years, I am not complaining about that! However, with a surplus of free time I wanted to do something to benefit the community… My system is an Heating, Ventilation, and A/C training and instructorship program, to give troubled teens a job option that doesn’t involve going to college or flipping burgers. I was blessed, because my dad was in the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C industry and got me a task right out of high university, but most adolescents don’t have an opportunity love that. In an era when college loan debt is crushing our economy, more adolescents need to get into trade work, in this case the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C industry… Demand is always high for this kind of skilled labor, and if teens knew that Heating, Ventilation, and A/C training was a suitable occasion to going to college, they might be interested! My method is to hold meetings, and eventually set up some ride-alongs where students can spend a few hours with an Heating, Ventilation, and A/C tech observing their work. I would be cheerful to set up scholarships for low-income youth who showed an interest in getting into the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C field. Heating, Ventilation, and A/C labor is highly paid and always in demand, and it doesn’t put you under a mountain of student loan debt to achieve it.
