IICRC Water Restoration Technician (WRT) Class: The RTI Experience
RTI proudly hosted a full class of restoration professionals for our December 5–7 IICRC Water Restoration Technician (WRT) CEC Course. Led by expert instructors Ron Valega and Stephan Schumm, students gained both classroom and hands-on experience—including practical training at our Applied Structural Drying facility in Reading, PA. Participants from across the U.S. and even the British Virgin Islands praised the engaging instruction, welcoming atmosphere, and high-quality training that exceeded expectations. We’re grateful to everyone who attended and look forward to welcoming more students in our upcoming 2018 courses.

From December 5 – 7, we enjoyed hosting a full class of industry professionals at our IICRC Water Restoration Technician (WRT) CEC Course. Students enjoyed learning from IICRC certified instructor, Ron Valega, of TMC Group in Medina, Ohio and our own IICRC certified Director of Education, Stephan Schumm. The second day of classes allowed students to engage in hands-on training at our Applied Structural Drying facility located in Reading, Pennsylvania. Here, they learned about new extractors, dehumidifiers, air movers, and how to dry a hardwood floor from our Director of Education, Steve, and Berks Fire Water Restorations Team Leader, Garrett Roth.
Thanks to everyone who attended for trusting RTI to help further their education and professional career. Whether you drove a few miles down the road or traveled as far as Virginia or the British Virgin Islands, as some of our students did, we enjoyed having you here and had a blast getting to know you and the company you proudly represent!
We hope to see you back again soon for our 2018 courses! You can find a full course schedule on our website at:http://bit.ly/2i0mal8
