"I can’t thank you all enough for the support you give to our students and our program. Not only for the awards but for the willingness in these crazy times to still provide industry certificates to our deserving students. To my knowledge you are the only industry doing this."
Randy Williamson, Construction Trades Instructor, Williamsport Area High School


Who we are

We, the Pennsylvania Builders Association (PBA), are committed to a viable, high-quality construction industry and the workforce to support it. We collaborate with schools throughout PA to provide students with industry-recognized certification to strengthen their skills and qualifications.

The hardworking businesses in our industry need access to dedicated and skilled employees. By creating a network of ties between PBA members, local student chapters and the community, we are able to provide a level of assurance that students completing their training have received the instruction they need to begin a successful career.
