Message from the President
EVT's, Emergency Vehicle Technicians, by definition are the people who face the never ending challenge of keeping our emergency apparatus in operating condition, ready to respond to today's emergencies on a moment's notice.
EVT's by nature are committed to the behind-the-scenes tasks they perform, knowing that Firefighters, Paramedics and EMT's rely on their expertise to accomplish the important goal of serving the citizens of their community.
The goals of TAEVT are to support and promote today's Emergency Vehicle Technician through continuing education, and peer networking.
If you would like to become part of an organization dedicated to the professional EVT, please take a moment to submit an application form.
If you have
any questions, please feel free to contact myself or any TAEVT officer. We
look forward to hearing from you.
