Champion Center for Leadership and Workforce Development Launches New Auditorium Project
[Hanover, PA - October 2025]: The Champion Center for Leadership and Workforce
Development (CCLWD) has completed Phase Two of its multi-stage renovation, marking
another step in transforming Hanover’s future leaders and workforce. Phase Two included the
renovation of 4500 square feet into a state-of-the-art automotive training center, which is now
the home of Hanover Auto Team’s Tech Pathways Apprenticeship.
The Phase Two renovations created a central training center where students can engage in
hands-on automotive technical training and mentorship. Students will also benefit from
leadership development through Every Day Champions Leadership Curriculum.
“The most valuable part of Tech Pathways was the supportive environment that encouraged my
growth and development. I’ve not only built technical skills but also learned important lessons
about leadership. With the new space, I’m even more excited for opportunities ahead and the
impact it will have for future students.”, said Zachary Collier, a Tech Pathways Apprentice.
The addition reflects the center’s commitment to bridging education, leadership, and workforce
readiness, ensuring the next generation is equipped with both the practical skills and leadership
qualities needed to succeed.
The Champion Center extends sincere thanks to the local businesses, leaders, educators, and
volunteers whose ongoing support continues to make this vision a reality.
As the Champion Center for Leadership and Workforce Development looks ahead, local
businesses and community leaders are invited to join in shaping Hanover’s future leaders and
workforce.
