Construction Technology Program
We are excited to tell you about a special new project!
We are launching a new...
Construction Technology Program!
The need for a Construction Technology Program at EWC Converse County faces a persistent housing crisis driven by an influx of temporary workers supporting oil, gas, and renewable energy projects. These workers, due to higher wages and per-diem allowances, occupy the already limited housing, making it increasingly difficult for essential professionals—teachers, nurses, law enforcement officers, and maintenance workers—to find accommodations.
A significant factor contributing to this housing shortage is the lack of skilled labor available to build long-term and short-term housing solutions. By investing in workforce development, the Construction Technology Program will directly increase the county’s capacity to build much-needed homes and infrastructure while also providing a skilled workforce for current business and industry growth and expansion.
Help shape the future of construction education!
