At ACTI we strive to do our part for the environment. One way we have helped is by changing how much paper waste there is in the classroom. We have switched several courses to use tablets instead of paper workbooks.
Such classes as Advanced rigging, Telehandler and forklift have already made the paperless workbook change over. Not only does it help keep us green. It also creates a unique environment for learning. It is still not a common practice in the training industry to be using electronic devices. Much like our VR system, ACTI is always moving forward and finding ways to help make the classroom a fun and engaging environment.

It’s National Thermal Engineer Day.

What does a thermal engineer do exactly?
One common responsibility of a thermal engineer is designing systems for heating and cooling. These systems can be small, such as those found in computers or electronics, or large, such as those found in buildings or aircraft. Fluids or gases are often used to move heat around the system so that it remains at optimal temperature.
The duties of a thermal engineer can involve the actual design and construction of these systems, or they can be more theoretical in nature. Computer models and simulations are often used in thermodynamics to predict how a system will respond to changes in temperature, whether the changes are created by external sources or by internal processes.
