Summer Issue of IPC Community Now Available
July 17, 2023 | Michelle Te, I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 1 minute
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. Mitchell, a debrief about the banking crisis from IPC’s lead economist Shawn DuBravac, and a breakdown of the A-Teams behind the growing field of e-textiles.

Enjoy the Journey: PCB Design Instructor Kris Moyer on His Sustainable Lifestyle
11/19/2024 | Michelle Te, IPC CommunityWhen I contacted IPC design instructor Kris Moyer to discuss his sustainable lifestyle, he responded to my text with a call. "I'm calling you from about 8,000 feet, sitting at the foot of Mammoth Lakes," he told me. “My friends and I are about to get in the pool for the afternoon." Kris can do this because he actually lives full-time in his travel-trailer at this campground. He's now a permanent camper, taking him anywhere the winds blow—and where there's strong internet service—so he can teach his PCB design classes, offer expert interviews, and live off the land.
