The U.S. Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration (EDA) awarded a $3,432,972 project grant to the Great Lakes Boat Building School under the Economic Adjustment Assistance (EAA) program (CFDA 11.307). The funding will support construction of a new 10,000 square foot facility providing additional workshop and instructional space to expand the school's marine service technician and other marine skills training programs. The award will also finance new boat docking infrastructure and marine electronics testing equipment to enhance student learning experiences and ensure graduates are equipped for the region's marine workforce needs. Once completed, the project aims to help the local economy recover from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and build assets that can lessen the effects of future economic shocks, bolstering job creation, private investment, and regional economic resiliency.
