Dunn County, News
A multi-million dollar addition to a local college is officially under construction.
A groundbreaking ceremony was held Monday morning at Chippewa Valley Technical College’s Manufacturing Education Center in Eau Claire. A scaled-down event was held to accommodate COVID-19 safety measures and featured CVTC leadership, faculty and press. Now under construction is a 10,000 square-foot addition onto the southeast corner of the building to expand the existing welding program facilities.
CVTC President Bruce Barker said the addition on the pre-existing Manufacturing Education Center will help ready students for a prosperous career in the workforce and aid the college’s ability to further develop their programming in multiple fields.
