Recreation vehicle service technicians are trained to inspect, test, replace and service all systems contained within a recreation vehicle, except for its engine and drive train. They work on systems such as propane, electrical, water, heating, braking, stabilizing and security systems and, therefore, have a broad base of knowledge and many different skills.

RV/mobile home dealerships, repair shops, manufacturers, and RV sites all employ recreation vehicle service technicians.
