An initiative to train thousands of Central Texans in career paths tied to the region’s tens of billions of dollars of new infrastructure projects on the horizon launched March 22 at Austin Community College’s Riverside Campus.
Local leaders gathered at ACC Riverside March 22 to mark the start of the Austin Infrastructure Academy, a workforce recruitment and training collaborative formed in advance of years of major development around Greater Austin.
The infrastructure academy’s creation has been in the works for months through partnership between local officials, educators and representatives from infrastructure industry, workforce development and labor groups.
