Concord Community Schools | Engineering and Construction Center
Facing a rising influx of students enrolling in trade programs, Concord Community School’s employed Weigand’s Construction Management services to build a brand-new trade school facility. This $3.9 million, 10,400 square foot education center houses additional students, resources, and space for each trade discipline offering.
Trades, Robotics, Manufacturing, and More
Sitting on the east end of Concord's sprawling campus located at 59040 Minuteman Way, Elkhart, IN, the complex features various spaces designed to support classes such as:
Civil Engineering Architectural Engineering Manufacturing Robotics Design and Innovation Construction Trades
Students learn direct application of these subjects in real time through classrooms equipped with the latest technology and training instruments.
Forecasting Workforce Gaps
With a rising need for people well-versed in trades of all types across the nation, the Engineering and Construction Center not only benefits the individual careers of students that pass through its halls but also creates candidates for all kinds of industries requiring the skill and expertise of well-educated workers. This has a direct, positive impact on learners’ careers, the community, and the economy as a whole.
