Empowering Our Workforce: Building a Sustainable Future.

Presentation Abstract: Why is the fast-growing HVAC&R Building Service industry – with its direct ability to address the role that buildings play in the climate crisis – experiencing an inability to attract new talent? “Empowering Our Workforce: Building a Sustainable Future” delves into this question by highlighting the emergence of new technologies to the industry and explores the imperative to remain adaptive and forward-thinking in shaping the engineers and building scientists of the future.
