According to the November 2020 Yavapai College Facilities Management Newsletter, the Verde Valley Skilled Trades Center engineered building has been ordered and delivery is anticipated by January 2021. The building’s interior is in the design stage with input coming from Dean, Career & Technical Programs John Morgan, Dean of the Verde Valley Campus and Sedona Center, Dr. Tina Redd, Associate Dean of Student Success, Heather Mulcaire, and Bob Weir (representing Valley Academy for Career and Technical Education).
The Verde Valley Skilled Trades Center is being designed to support Career and Technical Education programs for Residential Construction, Residential Electrical, HVAC, and Plumbing. The building will be approximately 10,000 square feet of shop space with restrooms and faculty offices.
The College reports that there will also be covered exterior space for additional activities associated with these programs. It is anticipated that earthwork will begin in early December, and building erection beginning at the end of January. The goal is to have the building ready for students for the 2021 fall semester.
