In this episode, we welcome Renee Tomlinson to the Chill Under Pressure Pod! Renee shares her inspiring journey from receptionist at RSES in 1994 to her current leadership role at ESCO. She discusses the evolution of HVAC training, the critical need for hands-on learning, and the importance of equipping future technicians through early education and industry partnerships. Renee reflects on the generational impact of HVAC education in her own family and the growing support for women in the trades. The conversation also emphasizes ESCO’s focus on adapting curriculum based on regulatory and technological changes, with a commitment to “educate, not legislate.” Thanks for joining us today, Renee!
