I attended the fundamentals class in March and i am back for the month to complete my certification. The instructors are very knowledgeable. I recommend the NRVTA to any RVer

@strong002 2 года назад

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Took this course in Dec 2021 and loved it. Accidently started a side business for me fixing RVs that I was not planning.

@ttucker0412 Год назад

Are you still running your side business?

@strong002 Год назад

@@ttucker0412 I am. I work on RVs nights and weekends. This past weekend I had a call from an electrical company. They wired a 30amp plug with 2 hots and a ground. Owner Plugged in the RV and it did not go well. Luckily the only issues was a 12v converter and a Microsoft. Everything else seemed to be working fine.

I attended the same class and Jared is spot on with his review. I attended for personal knowledge as an RV owner and was very happy with their program. Was a pleasure meeting you Jared.

I am 70 years young, have retired from farming all my life. I have always liked my rv and I am like everyone else I like to save money by repairing anything I can. If I had known about this place years ago I would have been there in person no doubt . Can I receive the right amount of information with the USB coarse to maintain my 5th wheel or should I go to Texas? I enjoy watching your channel every time I have learned a lot.

@larrysmith3181 2 года назад

I have the at home course and it has given me enough information to completely rebuild me travel trailer. I’m planing to take the RV Tech course next year . I’m 58 and will retire in about 2years. Planing to work for myself then.

@garywebb1353 2 года назад

100% agree with your assessment of the fundamentals course. I attend the week prior to yours. Gave me tremendous confidence and knowledge to work on my rig. In the last 2 weeks, I have taken my furnace apart and cleaned it. I have also had an electrical issue that I was able to troubleshoot and fix based on the info from the fundamentals course. Because of Todd and the staff at NRVTA, I will be attending the tech course in 2023. Great experience and worth money.

Hubs is taking the online course. It's been REALLY helpful, he found a plumbing leak before it caused damage to our rig. Got a remodeled bathroom out of it, and he replumbed pretty much everything under the bunk. He's going to clean the A/C next.

I took the home study course, it was extremely informative. I am hoping to take the in person course soon.

@EarlBalentine 20 дней назад

Great video Jared. I took took the online home coarse and it was excellent. The price was right I just wished they had more home classes online for like Generators and Solar. I'm retired and on limited income for me there's no way I could pay for on-site courses. It's a lot easier for folks that are starting a new career or RV dealers are paying the cost to send their employees but for me I just want to be able to work on my own RV it's not practical for me to justify the cost. More on-line classes would great.

@KelleyTexas 2 года назад

Very helpful video. I only live about 45 minutes from NRVTA. I have the home study course, but I haven't started it yet. I want to attend the in-person fundamentals class at some point. As a solo RVer, I would feel much better if I knew a lot more about my RV.

@truthbebold4009 9 месяцев назад

Would you say that buying the online course study was worth it before going to the fundamental class? I am looking into being a rv tech and going to the NRVTA for training.

I haven't the skill or patience to become an rv tech... but I was wondering if that multi-meter can detect good rv repair shops vs bad? 😉 I'm always afraid they are milking wallet.😐

@Threedog1963 3 месяца назад

Title of video, “…is it worth it?” You only provided one side. How much does it cost? How long is the course? If it’s 2 weeks long for a couple, and costs $5k. Yeah, maybe. If it’s 4 days and costs $20k, not so much.

I just purchased the USB version. That way I can have the videos with me when I do any work on my RV. It's too long to park in my steep driveway. You also get access to the on-line course too. Thanks for showing the info from the on-site course. That would be the best one to take, but I'm up in Minnesota and Texas is kind of far...

@joeo7257 Год назад

Is this a one school certification or a nationally recognized cert.?

@BTNomad Год назад

I attended NRVTA a few years ago, and it's still paying dividends. I went down there with the intention of just taking their basic course, I ended up staying for all five of the tech courses they offered at that time. Great instructors, great facilities, and just all around "good people". I truly believe that attending this course my first year on the road was the single best choice I've made for this RV life. Just passed my 4 year anniversary of living full-time in my RV.

@EvilEye1986 Год назад

What was the cost of the courses?

@BTNomad Год назад

@@EvilEye1986 , you'll need to check their website to see what the costs are now. It's been several years since I attended.

@EvilEye1986 Год назад

@@BTNomad yeah the website says that they won’t provide the information online anymore and you have to make an appointment with an admissions advisor. Do you mind sharing what it uses to cost?

@BTNomad Год назад

@jonathanhowlette7352 , I want to say it was around $1500 per course. It looks like they have different offerings now, though, so I'd just ask them. As I mentioned before, the courses are all still paying dividends. For instance, right now I'm in Iowa for the winter. My frig stopped working, and my hose connection on the water pump broke off. BUT, and this is what matters. I know those aren't big deals that I need to try to find an RV tech to fix. Thanks to my courses, I knew what and how to check the frig, and I understand the water system enough to know I can fix that myself, too.

@henrykrecklow817 2 года назад

I've thought about this course before and I guess the thing I wonder about is. I'm 68 retired not looking at a new career but I have an RV and like to work on it myself and do so. SO would the on line or USB course be the best thing or me? I just don't see going down to the school for what I'm looking for as far as working on my RV.

@alrude2847 2 года назад

I did the course last year. I will be 70 next week and a long time RV’r. Thought about going back for the Inspector course so did the Registered Tech exam at the end of the Fundamentals course. Was not easy. Hardest I have worked in a long time, but good sense of accomplishment when done. All that being said, flying in from the east coast, by the time you pay for a flight, place to stay and transportation you can double the costs for the actual course. So while I consider the course itself to be a great value, the total costs can be steep.

@henrykrecklow817 2 года назад

@G-manFX4 Год назад

Thanks, Jared - I'll echo the thanks for your videos. Incredibly helpful insights on everything you cover. After seeing your recommendation (along with the "Changing Lanes" folks) I purchased the USB/online bundle. I just completed the sessions, and completely agree with the benefit that Todd packs into the sessions. I'd love to figure out a way to head down and attend the fundamentals class in person. The Lab work would really close the loop on the "theory" learned online. Again -- thanks for your content. You're one of the best, as your to-the-point content always provides valuable tips and insight.

@jimherman5731 2 года назад

Jared, it was great meeting you at NRVTA! I agree with everything you said. I will also say, while the in-person class isn’t cheap, I think it’s a terrific value. I learned so much, and I think I will save more than I spent. Todd did a great job instructing (although he should have laughed more at my jokes) but a bonus I didn’t expect what how much I learned in the labs, and how knowledgeable and passionate the Tech Assistants who taught the labs were. As for packing a lot into the forty hours, they sure did! And no, I don’t remember it all, but the materials they gave us will remind me when I need the info again. I think any RVer would benefit from the course, and I’m very glad I took it.

First things first. Never jump in with acronyms, NRVTA, without explaining what it is. The title NRVTA doesn’t mean anything to someone who has no idea WTH it is. Just a friendly pointer from someone who’s worked in industries overloaded with acronyms.

All of this is on RU-vid university or the actual manufacturers websites. Why pay these fools for something that any mechanically inclined person already knows.

@SuzanneMenckArt 2 года назад

@SpykersB 2 года назад

NRVTA, don’t call yourself an RV technician until you’ve taken the tech course, because I’m sorry but “RV tech required, will train” does not even cut it in the slightest! It’s like any joe blow with zero handyman skills, zero RV knowledge gets hired by a dealer and given the glorified RV tech title, and holy cow, so many don’t know what the h@ll they r doing and screw it up more by applying a band-aide solution. 🙄. I see it over and over again. This desperately needs to become a designated technical school required tradesman training to work on the job! 🍻

@ToyotaToyota-bp4ts Год назад

you absolutely right I never went to welding school and new people came to work with us with certifications and couldn't weld anything same with RVs I being working in RVs for 10 years without certifications and when hires new people I have to train them it's funny some guys with 25 experience can't even diagnose anything I believe more in life schooling than training schools it's all about money creating those training schools
