The Trump administration is praising IPC, an Association Connecting Electronics Industries and several of its member companies for their efforts to expand the skilled workforce. On July 25, an IPC group took part in a White House event marking the first anniversary of President Trump’s Executive Order to develop a national strategy to expand the skilled workforce. The event took stock of the progress made under that executive order and the related Pledge to America’s Workers, which called on private sector companies to step up their workforce upskilling efforts.
In recognition of the industry’s efforts, employees and executives from four IPC member companies attended Thursday’s White House event: Calumet Electronics of Calumet, Mich.; STI Electronics of Madison, Ala.; TTM Technologies of Santa Ana, Cal. and one of Merion Investment Partner’s portfolio companies, Zentech Manufacturing of Baltimore, Md.
