Meet Daniel Quinonez, PHCC Educational Foundation's new executive director.

The SkillsUSA Championships occupy 1.79 million square feet (31 football fields or 41 acres) of floor space. More than 6,000 students competed in 110 contests. 

Quinonez brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to lead the foundation in its mission to support the plumbing, heating, and cooling industry.

PHCC mourns friend and former colleague.

PHCC's new online application system will make applying easier for apprentices and students and streamline the evaluation process. 

This year, the Foundation was able to provide contest materials to the Charlotte Region Habitat for Humanity organization.

A total of 18 plumbing and 10 HVAC apprentices from across the nation took part in the contests. 

The PHCC Educational Foundation typically runs one Super Foremen Workshop and one Essentials of Project Management class per year.

The deadline for all submission materials is May 1.
