2017年5月, Bexar县 voters approved a $450 million capital improvement bond for the 阿拉莫大学, 为国家经贸委拨款2300万美元. 位于马丁内斯路, 将近49岁,000-square-foot facility houses 帕洛阿尔托学院’s Nursing program and Alamo 大学 区’s Ready to Work, 成人教育, 和劳动力培训计划. 这种扩张将使许多人的未来受益, 包括学生, 成年人, 终身学习者, 以及那些寻求工作经验的人.
“The 澳门新葡京博彩区 has a mission to empower our diverse communities for success,澳门新葡京博彩校长Dr. 迈克•弗洛. “We’re partnering with our community on a moonshot to end poverty in 圣安东尼奥 and the surrounding areas by offering access and support for education and training.”
Built on land provided by Southside Independent School 区, it is also part of the 阿拉莫大学 education and training centers, designed to increase access to higher education services in communities across Bexar县. It operates under the Department of Economic and Workforce Development.
“Since 帕洛阿尔托学院 was established more than 35 years ago, we have held true to our core values of serving as champions for community access, and we are grateful for our educational partnership with Southside ISD, 是什么让我们把这个项目变成了现实,”医生说。. 罗伯特·加尔扎,帕洛阿尔托学院院长. “澳门新葡京博彩正在创造奇迹, not only here in the Southside but all over 圣安东尼奥 and the surrounding communities.”
Utilizing the collective instructional resources of the 阿拉莫大学, the center meets accreditation standards that will allow students to earn both academic and workforce education degrees and certifications.
The design team at Lake Flato integrated many sustainability features including using thermal mass exterior construction to reduce solar heat gain, unconditioned outdoor circulation spaces to help reduce power demand and taking advantage of the prevailing Southeast breeze. The landscape design includes native vegetation that’s partially irrigated by capturing water run-off from mechanical condensate and redirecting it to the regional and drought-tolerant landscape.
The 阿拉莫大学 currently has one additional education and training center project underway – the Northwest Education and 培训中心. To learn more about SETC or other 阿拉莫大学 education and training centers, please visit 阿拉莫.edu/setc.
