IPC launches its summer issue of Community today. Packed with over 100 pages of member success stories, market impact content, and global membership updates this issue will keep you up to date with the latest industry conversation.
“With each issue, we harness the power of networking while demonstrating the unique partnership between IPC and its members, who are all doing important work within microelectronics,” says Michelle Te, IPC Community managing editor. “That might look like coverage of the premier SummerCom Golden Gnome Awards, an interview with a son who followed in the footsteps of his father on standards development committees, or highlighting a training program for young operators in India. These stories feel so relevant and timely.”
IPC Community puts the spotlight on the IPC Education Foundation in this issue. You’ll hear from Joe O’Neil, chair of the education foundation, get details about the new Careers in Electronics website, and meet the team of professionals behind it all.
This issue also includes class schedules for instructor-led courses, updates on the latest standards, a message from IPC President and CEO Dr. John W.
