The Grenada Refrigeration, Air-condition and Ventilating Association (GRAVA) in collaboration with the National Ozone Unit of Grenada as part of its objectives to update and prepare technicians for the transfer of technology that the Refrigeration and Air-condition industry is currently experiencing has organized a series of training opportunities for local technicians. These training activities are also endorsed by the National Ozone Unit (NOU) and forms an integral component of Grenada's Terminal Phase-out Management Plan (TPMP) for CFC/Ozone Depleting refrigerants.
Among the many training activities scheduled are:
• Training in Retrofitting, Recovery and Recycling - October 10th and 17th, 2009 (2 days)
