Workforce Training and Continuing Education activities are essential to the mix, and since their new facility opened at the ITECC in 2002, 4,635 participants have completed new job skills training and 1,827 existing employees of area companies have completed job skill upgrade training.
Of these funds, $17 million will be invested in the ITECC.
The long-term development and sustainability of economic development programs will depend upon UTB/TSC's ability to plan and build-out the physical infrastructure at ITECC and to develop and fund the appropriate academic, training, and continuing education programs at ITECC.
