Since then, PCEA has grown to almost 1,000 members with eleven chapters in five states. Current goals include active expansion to other market areas.PCEA members have always been active in the promotion of construction education for the betterment of the industry. Each chapter individually coordinates, develops and establishes programs to assist and enhance the educational endeavors in their community while pursuing the educational goals of membership. PCEA chapters support educational programs ranging from, but not limited to, scholarships to local students, endowed scholarships at several universities, providing construction instructors, purchasing equipment for use in technical training and introducing construction as a trade to "at risk" students.In 1988, PCEA established the National PCEA Ted G.
