and finally, from the news-herald hearn public I'm sorry hern plummy heating an era of madison valley celebrating an anniversary

so first off from fenews dot co dot uk an article by Dr. Simon Reddy it starts off there are certain things to celebrate about the continual improvement of quality in vocational education and it starts off with the heading has anything changed as a plumbing teacher from the article by Dr. Simon Reddy I always thought it was unfair that the majority of full-time plumbing students had received training that would not prepare them for the challenges and problems of the workplace, in addition, it troubled me that hardly any full-time plumbing students managed to get apprenticeships or jobs with plumbing firms and the article continues on and if you want to read it again that is fenews.com.uk an article by Dr. Simon Reddy on vocational training.

And from wflx.com free press like a talk-free pre-apprenticeship program for trades in high demand and looks like this is just one of those generic articles that are put out as far as no byline that I can see at the moment. It starts off with Palm Beach County school district offers free programs for adults to learn vocational skills that are currently in high demand. There are various trades available through the Palm Beach County school district's pre-apprenticeship trades program the courses are delivered in partnership with Florida training services and FDOE approved provider quoting Fred Barch we train adults in the five trades including electrical plumbing welding HVAC and carpentry Fred Barch is the director of Adult and Community Education for the Palm Beach County school district the trade courses are offered in the North Tech Education Center in Riviera Beach and the West Tech Education Center in Belle Glade the program also attracts students from surrounding counties and it goes on with a few more quotes by some instructors and from students alike and again that article can be found at wflx.com let's see what else we have out there in the news world of plumbing.

And from homenewshere.com otherwise known as the daily times chronicle a feasibility study on the table for Burlington High School HVAC and this is by mark b and I probably did not pronounce that right at all, anyway school officials are continuing to take necessary steps to address the bygone HVAC system at Burlington High School. Bob Kuna of technology and operations for the Burlington public schools recently approached the school committee about where they stand on a proposed feasibility study for the HVAC system at BHS.
A feasibility study would assess the building looks at the HVAC system and a few main areas which are determined and selected plumbing electrical current fire protection and the architectural and structural size of the building. It will assess all those aspects give us recommendation on needed repairs alert us on any types of triggers resulting from the cost of the replacement and give us cost estimates on actual facts and there's further quotes by Mr Kuna and the story continues onward so that story again can be found at

homenewshere.com now according to the digital journal dot com blue ridge and hearty to host webinar addressing HVAC plumbing and electrical distributors supply chain challenges.
