Our Vision
Women in HVACR was organized exclusively for educational purposes to further the growth of women in all areas of the HVACR industry, including technical, sales, management and ownership. It is our goal to provide our members with a variety of opportunities to network and develop in a professional environment.
Achievement Through Teamwork
Our Board of Directors, members and sponsors from all aspects of the industry work together to identify resources and networking opportunities. By assigning committees with specific goals, we're able to achieve greater results and provide a wider range of support for our members.
We are strong because of the time and effort put in by those willing to lead and share their knowledge with others. Our members are invited to contribute their expertise or ideas to one or more of our committees.
Education & Outreach Committee
This committee focuses on the ongoing development of the Mentoring Program, which connects two people with similar goals and encourages them to build a relationship that will facilitate personal and/or business growth. It also manages the Outreach Program that works with primary and secondary educational facilities to develop an awareness of the careers available in the HVAC industry and is working toward the creation of a Scholarship Program designed to foster financial support and encouragement for young women considering careers in the HVACR industry.
Chairs: Kathy McCauley & Sharon Collier
