WZL's vision and
understanding of AIRAH's role within industry is that of a
leader in the dissemination of knowledge to all who want to
learn.
As the past
convenor of "Commissioning and Balancing", he see AIRAH's role
slightly different to the "father of the institute", Fred
Goodman, where the focus was on engineers joining the institute.
He is in total agreement with one of our past national
president's Mr Ray Cooper that any member "irrespective of their
academic achievements" can be a competent person for our
industry and also have something to contribute to our industry.
As technology is advancing in leaps and bounds, Bill feels that
it is AIRAH's role not only to train engineers but also the
commissioning technicians, with the benefits in the future
being:
1. To help raise the working standards of technicians via
training.
2. To ensure the person doing the job can understand the design
intent of the air conditioning system as designed by the
engineer.
3. To provide a working document on all aspects of commissioning
in layman's terms to help the commissioning technician do the
job correctly the first time around.
By training technicians, we not only raise the standard of
workmanship but we also make the employee more fficient for the
employer.
