$2
Million Investment in Iowa’s Community Colleges
Posted 4 August 2010
I-JOBS is benefitting
each of Iowa’s 15 community colleges with a total of $2 million in
grants. The I-JOBS initiative has funded specific projects that help
community colleges fulfill their mission of preparing Iowa students for
the jobs of the future in advanced manufacturing, renewable energy and
information technology.
NICC is receiving $99,078 in I-JOBS community college infrastructure
funding for various campus improvements.
In addition to NICC’s I-JOBS community college allocation, the
Northeast Iowa Community College Foundation is receiving $750,000 from
I-JOBS to construct a new public/college library in the main building
at the Peosta campus. This new library will partner the NICC Burton
Payne Library with the Dubuque County Library Association and the City
of Peosta to establish a joint library for the community.
“This is just one of 15 projects all around the state, helping improve
every one of Iowa’s community colleges, so that students like these can
have an opportunity to prepare for a four-year degree or learn a
skill,” Culver said. “The education they get here at NICC will allow
these students to get one of the jobs of the future being created at
great companies like IBM, Microsoft and Google here in Iowa.”
The Governor toured the construction site of NICC’s new facility for
career and technical programs, which is making the I-JOBS library
project possible by moving those programs out of the main building.
