RV Technical Institute Graduate Featured During Outdoor Recreation Workforce Webinar

To accompany the release of a brand-new report on the outdoor workforce, Outdoor Recreation Roundtable and a panel of outdoor professionals in diverse roles have highlighted in-demand career opportunities across the $689 billion outdoor recreation economy.

One of the webinar's panelists is Tim Scott, a graduate of the RV Technical Institute and a certified Level 2 Technician who is currently working as a technician at Camping World. He has ten years of experience in the trades and three in the outdoor industry. 

"All of my education, as far as certifications, comes from the [RV] industry and from RVTI," Tim said, who also emphasized the industry's growth potential. Prior to working in the RV industry, he noted that his salary was around $25,000, and has since increased to the low $70,000s. "This is a great opportunity for my family and for people who may not have same opportunities as someone with higher education," he explained.
