Selkirk Supports Industry Education

Selkirk is furthering the education of hearth, patio and barbecue professionals through support of the 2010 HPBExpo Education Program at the upcoming HPBExpo. The show will be held in Orlando, Florida March 10-13, and offers attendees countless educational opportunities.
EXPO attendees will find a variety of sessions available to them in three major tracks: Business Management, Sales & Marketing, and Technical & Safety.
Almost all of the sessions carry National Fireplace Institute® (NFI) Continuing Education Units (CEUs), enabling professionals who earn the required credits to renew their certification without taking exams.
“Supporting the HPBExpo Education Program gives Selkirk a unique opportunity to give back to our industry, one that is a vital part of our growth as a company,” said Tim Rothgeb, Vice President of Sales for Selkirk Hearth. “Specialty hearth retailers play a crucial role in educating the public on the importance and viability of alternative energy home heating products. We want to help provide the knowledge they need to be successful in this important task.”
