Kansas PHCC, formally known as the Kansas Plumbing, Heating, Cooling Contractors Association, operates from Wichita and serves licensed contractors across the Sunflower State. The association consolidates industry resources, coordinates continuing education approved by the Kansas Metropolitan Training Board, and facilitates networking among plumbing and mechanical professionals. Across 7 verified reviews, the organization earns a 4.0-star average, with reviewers noting the knowledgeable instructors and focused class environments.
Federated Insurance holds premier sponsorship status, underwriting member training events and continuing education initiatives. The association publishes a running calendar of KMTRB-approved CEU courses across disciplines including backflow prevention, drainlaying, and irrigation. A scheduled August 2026 workshop titled "Intro to Project Management" will be led by industry consultant Kirk Alter at Tomahawk Hills, addressing construction project management topics for contractor members and associates.
Bill Vines draws direct praise in reviews for his instruction on backflow and cross-connection prevention, with one attendee describing a thorough 16-hour certification course covering material that contractors need for license renewal. Other reviewers describe the classroom atmosphere as friendly and the information presented as directly applicable to field work. Matt Schaumburg notes the training space is modest but adequate for the curriculum, a detail that sets realistic expectations for attendees comparing this venue to larger trade schools.
What Customers Say
Five of seven reviewers award 5 stars, with instructor Bill Vines named explicitly for his backflow certification teaching style. The 4-star review acknowledges a smaller training facility while confirming the coursework met professional standards. A single 3-star review cites an unrelated social event and does not reflect training quality.
