Shurtape Kicks Off Third Year of Mission: HVAC Technical
Education Program.
Shurtape Technologies launched its Mission: HVAC
Educating for Success program for the third year with
three new students, selected among applicants from
technical schools nationwide. The students will receive
10 HVAC-themed missions that will challenge them to
conduct research, network with HVAC professionals, and
interview experts in the field. Their findings will then
be compiled and shared in the form of blog posts on
Shurtape’s educational website,
TapeUniversity.com. Each student who completes all
10 missions will be rewarded with $5,000 to put toward
the cost of their education and position them for
success as they enter the workforce.
“This program was created to address the stigma around
skilled trades and to shed light on the training and
dedication required to become an HVAC professional,”
said Glenn Walter, product marketing manager for
building and construction tapes at Shurtape. “Many of
today’s HVAC professionals are nearing retirement age,
and with replacements becoming increasingly difficult to
find, it is essential to train new professionals in this
rewarding field. We also hope to take off some of the
financial burden of earning a technical education for
these students as they grow in their knowledge of the
industry and gain experience that will be paramount to
their success in the workforce.”
