ATEC features approximately 15,600-square-feet of workshop and laboratory space and will provide the campus with the space needed to support the type of Career Technical Education (CTE) training that College of the Canyons officials say “leads directly to employment.”

Included in the building’s design are four modular buildings, accompanying modular restrooms, and a permanent, “spacious”, facility for the college’s automotive technology program.

Other COC programs moving into the ATEC include: plumbing, water systems technology and the college’s new solar technology and renewable energy program.
