Daikin, the largest air conditioning manufacturer in the world wants the HVACR industry to get FIT. With that in mind, Daikin held a full day of training on their new Daikin FIT, the next generation of smart system HVACR technologies. With its inverter compressor, swing style compressor and installation to match current day technician’s knowledge base, made it the class to attend.

As a result of attending the session, instructors carried back to their students the Future of air conditioning with a knowledge that tomorrow’s classrooms will be required to teach Inverter compressors, new technology compressors like the Swing Compressor, communicating controllers and proper installation procedures. Daikin’s focus was on its Daikin University LMS and how instructors can use the online classes to advance their students’ knowledge.

Bringing instructors together from all over the country is a massive endeavor. However, conducting this training during the HVAC Excellence National HVACR Educators and Trainers Conference held March 3-5 in Las Vegas, made it easy for instructors to participate. The event hosted nearly 800 industry leading individuals involved in training the current and future HVACR workforce.

In addition to helping instructors incorporate the FIT platform, Daikin also offered four hand-on classes on how to troubleshoot mini and multi-splits during the HVAC Excellence event. These sessions filled up even before the show conference began. “How can I get into these classes?” was the question of the day. Training was conducted by Field Service Managers from Daikin who normally teach in classrooms across North America (Canada included). Their field experience offered that extra information the instructors were wanting to take back to their students!

Daikin demonstrated what the future could look like and the need for quality education. Daikin offered their online modules (Web Based Training) along with the “how to’s” of class registration and the benefits of being an Educational Partnership Program member. Daikin University (LMS) schedules all aspects of instructor lead training where Daikin instructors teach the future technologies that are being developed today!

Look for next year’s HVAC Excellence National HVACR Educators and Trainers Conference and Daikin’s new classes to bring back to your students, leading them into the future of air conditioning, keeping them FIT as well. Sign up early and expect quality training from Daikin!
