Companies that join the RSES Educational Foundation as Corporate Members will increase the opportunities for skill development available to their HVAC/R employees while enhancing their employees' professional pride and development. Optimum training leads directly to increased productivity and a more dedicated work force.
Corporate memberships are renewed annually and allow a company to control technician training. In addition, the company retains its membership even if a technician leaves the company. This means that the benefits follow the company, not the individual.
Contact the Red River Chapter Secretary at secretary@rsesfargo.org, or RSES International Headquarters at info@rses.org to request an application form, or for the current annual dues based on the size of your company.
