"Tradespeople are the
country's backbone, and the pandemic reminded us that we can't take
our essential skilled trade workers for granted," said Doug Sanford,
Senior Vice President of IDEAL INDUSTRIES, INC. "We're thrilled to
partner with ServiceTitan to expand on the success of the series to
include an all-new program focused on the HVAC technicians."
"Technicians are the unsung heroes that work tirelessly to keep our
heaters working in the dead of winter, and our air conditioners
running during a scorching summer heatwave," said Tom Howard, Vice
President of Customer Success at ServiceTitan. "For far too long the
trades industry has not been given the spotlight it deserves and I'm
incredibly proud that ServiceTitan is a part of this effort to
showcase the skills and experience of some of the most talented
technicians in the industry."
Unlike the other national championship events in the series, which
hold live regional qualifying events, the ServiceTitan HVAC National
Championship will have its qualifying events exclusively online,
increasing the opportunity for participation. The Digital Online
Qualifier round, which runs through July 31, is open to any HVAC
apprentices with less than three years of experience or any
Professionals who are EPA-Certified, Licensed Technicians, and have
more than three years of experience. While registration is required,
there is no fee to participate.
The qualifying round will feature a five-minute multiple-choice
test. Those who pass will advance to a practical skill set round,
which will run from Aug. 1-Sept. 25. The top 15 apprentices and the
top 15 professionals will be invited to compete live in the
semi-finals at the Tampa Convention Center.
All qualifying round winners who advance to the semi-finals will
receive a custom VIP prize package from ServiceTitan HVAC National
Championship sponsors and an all-expenses-paid trip to Tampa,
Florida, to compete in the 2022 program. Other sponsors supporting
the ServiceTitan National HVAC Championship include 7-Eleven, Duluth
Trading and Little Giant Ladder Systems.
