This week, VP of Sales & Marketing, Chad Brown, has been in Daytona Beach, FL at an Advanced Technical College. Starting on Monday, May 13th and lasting through today, this National EVT Training Academy event is put on by the Florida Fire Chiefs' Association.  The course is designed to provide continuing education on the maintenance and repair of emergency vehicle equipment. The course will conclude with an EVTCC test.

EVT technicians have come in from around the country to participate at the Advanced Technology Center. Each day, they have been listening to presentations on topics such as aerial fire apparatus, Hale pumps, hydraulic systems, advanced electrical systems, inspection and maintenance of fire apparatus, and much more.  Yesterday, Chad Brown presented on Braun ambulances specifically. He covered maintenance and repair for electrical troubleshooting, exterior doors, the Weldon VMux system, and more.

As part of the course, there was also a vendor showcase yesterday from 4:00 - 6:00 pm. There to represent Braun Industries was local ambulance dealer, Ten-8 Fire Equipment. They had a customer unit from St. Johns County Rescue on display for class participants to tour. For more information on Ten-8 Fire Equipment, visit their website.
