We received the following request for help from anyone
experienced with establishing and maintaining a plumbing school:
Gentlemen,
Some of the plumbing inspectors and myself, along with the Memphis
Area Plumbing Association, and local contractors are discussing
opening a non-union apprenticeship school in
Shelby
County. We are going to
approach the local community college for classroom space and their
cooperation. Do any of you have such a program in existence, and how
does it work in your local area. Any help you can give me on funding
sources and curriculum would be greatly appreciated. If you know of
any contacts that would help in our efforts those names would also
be appreciated. I think that a program like this could only benefit
the industry.
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Sincerely, Tom Connable, Plans Examiner, Shelby
County, TN.
Please Note: we received a report
that the link below was not functioning; Earlier today we
repaired it; It is not known how long it was broken?

I am trying to find student books,
workbooks, and instructor’s manuals for a four year plumbing
apprentice program. Any information on where to find would be
greatly appreciated. I have found some thru PHCC but I’m not sure
these are the best source or all that are available. Any information
you can give me would be deeply appreciated. Tom Connable
