As it starts to get colder in November MCAS starts to change gears. That means that the bulk of our training events finish, and we start planning for 2023.

But before we start planning for next year, we will be holding a few sessions of the Canada’s Ozone Layer Protection Awareness Training.

This course is for those who require the ODP/ODS Certification for the purchasing and / or handling of refrigerants throughout Canada, to fulfill provincial and federal regulations. You must receive 75% or higher on the exam to receive the Ozone Depleting Substances card (ODS).

Registration forms for all locations can be found online at www.mca-sask.com

To stay competitive the mechanical contracting industry is always evolving to meet the needs of the changing world. So, with the talk of green incentives, environmental respect, and net zero goals working their way into every facet of the job, we can expect more changes in the coming years.

We are investigating what that means and the potential impact on our course offerings and educational events. I would appreciate input from all of members because these changes in technology are going to impact our entire industry. Please send any requests or ideas to me at memberservices@mca-sask.com or give Roma a call at 306-664-2154.

As the proverb says, “Necessity is the mother of invention.”
