Career pathways – plumbers challenge to challenge

The Community Plumbing Challenge (CPC) commits to combining multi-discipline teams, with a cross-section of expertise. Its aim has been to provide a skills pathway and career options for Plumbing apprentices and professionals. Because the CPC always involves local residents and hands on training, many of them have an opportunity to upskill and transfer knowledge at the next challenge.

HH is happy to see some familiar faces at the Navajo Nation CPC including Range Lorge, Lead team of the USW team at CPC Challenge in India in 2015, Obed Kakae WASSUP South Africa, Jed Scheuermann IWSH Foundation, Grant Stewart IWSH Foundation.

Plumbers are essential health workers, as we’ve seen across all projects both in Australia and abroad.
