VASA

VASA VASA represents automotive air conditioning, electrical and cooling technicians in Australia and New Zealand.

VASA is the only network in the region representing professional workshops and technicians in the vehicle aftermarket. It was formed in 1993 to give the industry a voice in legislative debate on codes of practice, licensing regimes and to improve training standards. VASA is now regarded as a significant force and takes an active role in many national issues at the highest level of government and trade training.
