What IHEA members say about the benefits of IHEA’s educational programs:
“Many of our engineering positions have a requirement to be trained in IHEA’s NFPA86 and Fundamentals of Industrial Heating courses. We think IHEA’s courses are a great way to get them started in their positions.
— Albert Cantu, Nutec Bickley
“IHEA offers many benefits for Super Systems Inc. Because of the member discount, we have sent our engineers to the training seminars. They bring back great knowledge and make connections during the class.”
— Bob Fincken, Super Systems Inc. (SSi)
