About the speaker(s)

Kim Limburg

 

Kim Limburg has over a decade’s experience running a family-owned refrigeration and air-conditioning business. Kim established the Australian Refrigeration Mechanics Association (ARMA) in 2015, after experiencing first-hand the devastating effects of the take-up of shortcut Certificate II and III courses on the industry, which pushed and continue to push qualified air-conditioning and refrigeration tradespeople out of their jobs. As ARMA’s CEO, Kim is passionate about the inclusion of education about natural refrigerants in all levels of refrigeration and air-conditioning vocational training and upskilling.
