Education is one of the driving forces of humankind. It is true for a Recreational Vehicle Service Technician just as it is true for any other high tech or professional career. Despite the increased emphasis on primary, secondary and university education, the knowledge and skills acquired in school are not sufficient for a 3 or 4 decades long professional career. We must continue to learn to keep up with technology that we encounter everyday in our jobs.
