Description

This EDA investment supports the john a. Logan college with constructing a new career and technical center (CTC) to spur workforce development in critical and in-demand industries in the williamson county, illinois region. While the covid-19 pandemic devastated local businesses and led to higher unemployment and business closures, the pandemic also created demand for worker retraining in growing regional industries including advanced manufacturing. As a result, local leaders and the college determined that new career training programs in welding and computer numerically controlled (CNC) operation would help fill local businesses' demand for skilled workers as the pandemic recedes. The new CTC will include classroom and demonstration space for training in a variety of fields including advanced manufacturing and related skills and technologies. The new programs will ensure that the regional workforce has the skills to meet employers' needs, which will help bolster job creation, increase private investment, and strengthen the regional economy.
