Formerly the HVACR & Mechanical Instructor Workshop

---

The HVACR & Mechanical Conference for Education Professionals is a jointly-sponsored event designed to provide instructors, industry trainers, and administrators of apprentice and secondary/postsecondary school-based instructional programs with cutting-edge technical information and teaching techniques that will enable them to effectively train the next generation of skilled workers for the HVACR and plumbing industries.
 
To accomplish this goal, the Conference is held annually at a time conducive to the targeted instructors’ school schedules (typically in March) in a location easily accessible to all. The 2012 Conference will be held at the Cheyenne Mountain Resort, Colorado Springs, Colo., on March 12-14, 2012. Register for the event here.
 
During the Conference educational sessions are held covering HVACR and plumbing technical topics, educational delivery suggestions, and other relevant content.  In addition, tabletop exhibits are featured to further connect instructors with industry manufacturers, with a focus on the latest innovations and practices.
 
The Conference is currently sponsored by 13 industry associations that believe in the objectives of the Conference. Sponsorship of this event is intended to offset the administrative cost of the Conference, so that we do not have to charge registration fees to attendees or standard exhibitor fees to manufacturers and other related companies, organizations, publishers, etc.
