HVAC&R Industry CPD Programme

IRHACE & CCCANZ ANNOUNCE COLLABORATION IN TECHNICAL EDUCATION

IRHACE and CCCANZ supported by RLNZ promote the advancement of training and education in the HVAC&R industry. The peak industry bodies have announced their collaboration in releasing a new initiative initially for CCCANZ companies.

IRHACE released the HVAC&R industry CPD programme in early 2022 specifically to provide a level of technical education - a first in our industry.

“We wanted to provide a platform that everyone within the HVAC&R industry could contribute to for the betterment of training and education”, says Mark Meyer, IRHACE President.

“IRHACE Members receive access to the platform and gain CPD points as part of their membership benefits and they also have the opportunity as experts in their field to contribute to this platform. Recent contributions have come from the Auckland University, M. IRHACE and F. IRHACE Members as well as other industry experts. IRHACE has 500+ members that are highly qualified in the HVAC&R industry and/or have over ten years working experience with a minimum of five years in a position of responsibility”.

“Our huge knowledge bank can be promoted to industry, and it made sense that our first collaboration would be with CCCANZ companies. CCCANZ company staff are able to join IRHACE as an Affiliate member* and receive a level of technical education and experience the value of the platform”.

CCCANZ Chair Malcolm Miller says that “CCCANZ are in full support of this initiative, and we are pleased to be working with IRHACE in promoting this through our network. We are also encouraging our network of 100+ companies to contribute webinars to this platform for the betterment of the HVAC&R industry”.

Our first companies to use this initiative are from ASCL Group, Degree Air Conditioning, Clarkson Air Conditioning, RCR Infrastructure, Absolute Airconditioning and AMT. Only available to CCCANZ companies please contact admin@cccanz.org.nz for details.
