(Ankeny, IA) -- Des Moines Area Community College will break ground on a new building at its Ankeny campus this week.
DMACC will hold a groundbreaking ceremony Thursday for its new Industry and Trades Building. The 72 thousand square foot facility will replace two outdated campus buildings and eventually house DMACC's Building Trades, HVAC, Diesel Technology, and Fire Science programs as well as Iowa's only Ford Training Center. The facility is meant to increase and modernize opportunities for hands-on training in skilled trades. The new facility will be located on the northeast corner of DMACC's Ankeny campus.
The groundbreaking ceremony is scheduled for Thursday, November 6th at the DMACC Ankeny Campus' Parking Lot C.
