The estimated $2.8 million center will provide students an opportunity to learn trades such as welding and industrial mechanics. Training programs tailored to specific businesses, like Tyson Foods in Storm Lake, will also be conducted at the facility. Allers Associates Architects, of Fort Dodge, is the architect firm for the project. Kinney said construction should begin within the next month. The training center is anticipated to open in the fall of 2020, he said.
