“We look for dealer feedback to develop new programs and initiatives. With directives from the RVDA of Canada board, committees then further expand and enhance educational offerings at the annual RV Dealers Convention/Expo and in various formats throughout the year. Committee members bring many areas of expertise to help the association further its mission to provide support and strength to protect and promote the interests and welfare of Canadian RV dealers. This ensures we maximize the potential of the industry for all involved. The Canadian RV Coalition Committee is a very important forum for RV industry leaders to engage in meaningful dialogue,” said Eleonore Hamm, president of RVDA of Canada.

“It’s a natural progression for me to join the national Education-HR committee as I was involved in the Atlantic Education Committee,” said Chardell Brydon, chair, RVDA of Canada Education-HR Committee. “As a dealer in Nova Scotia, it’s been a great opportunity for me to learn and discuss with dealers across the country on their experiences with employee training and recruitment. We come together as a group to evaluate program offerings that would benefit all dealership employees across the country. The current committee composition reflects a good mix of professional knowledge and experience including dealer, educator, technician, business executive and manufacturer.”

Nominations are accepted until May 12, 2023.
