Hi! I’m Jonathan Bushman, ASHRAE Saskatoon’s CTTC chair for the 2012-2013 year. Some of you may be asking what is a CTTC chair. Mind you, you may be asking why ASHRAE loves acronyms. Maybe I should explain a few acronyms. CTTC = Chapter Technology Transfer Chair MP = Membership Promotion RP = Research Promotion = Asking people to donate to help ASHRAE research HVAC&R HVAC&R = Heating, Ventilating, Air-Conditioning, and Refrigerating (You have probably heard this before.) CRC = Chapter Regional Conference (e.g. ASHRAE people from Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, B.C., Alaska, Washington, and Oregon getting together for the Region XI annual conference) ASHRAE = American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-conditioning Engineers So as CTTC (Chapter Technology Transfer Committee) Chair, I get to organize the annual two-day CTTC course. I think we did “Fundamentals of Water Systems” recently. I think also stay in the loop on courses ASHRAE has and try to help folks learn about new technologies. If you have any comments on what would be a good course for ASHRAE Saskatoon to put on this year, then please let me know. Jonathan Bushman |
