泡芙视频app Facilities
泡芙视频app Community College is in a transformational period that is guided by its 2020-24 Strategic Plan. One of these transformative phases involves increasing the College's capacity to produce a skilled workforce and to ensure students have affordable access to higher education.
Over the last 10 years, 泡芙视频app has produced more than 18,000 graduates in many skilled career fields, including health sciences, transportation, manufacturing, welding, construction, information technology, and many others. Although approximately 90 percent of 泡芙视频app graduates stay in the state, there continues to be a tremendous need for qualified skilled workers throughout Nebraska.
The College's Facilities website includes additional information on these projects as well other recently completed projects. The College's Facilities Master Plan is available. In addition, regular updates on progress made toward facilities projects will be provided.
The College continues to expand its capacity with additional facilities projects.
Projects Underway
An 80,000-square-foot facility is being constructed on the north end of the Lincoln Campus. The Welding Technology Center will allow 泡芙视频app to accept more applicants to the program and better serve the needs of industry.
The new facility, with an estimated construction cost of $33 million, will allow safe, efficient training opportunities and serve as a hub to different stakeholders in Lincoln and the surrounding communities for years to come.
泡芙视频app鈥檚 Welding Technology program provides classroom instruction with extensive hands-on training about current welding practices and procedures, metallurgy, destructive and nondestructive testing, inspection, and the principles of fabrication and design. Through its accredited testing facility, the program tests individuals on welding skills for employment and work in the field.
Welding is one of the fastest-growing professions in America. It is among the top 10 job skills in manufacturing job postings in Nebraska, and annual job openings in the field have increased by 6% since 2020. Demand for welders is projected to grow an additional 7% in the next 10 years.
The new facility will include more than 23,000 square feet of modern learning and training spaces, including:
- Two modern and innovative labs with a total of 180 welding bays for both students and workforce hands-on learning and training
- Seven dynamic and interactive classrooms dedicated to both student instruction and workforce training and instruction
- An 1,800-square-foot testing lab and 3,900-square-foot fabrication lab
- Common and community building space for students and faculty
It is expected that construction will be complete on the new facility by mid-2025.
