The proposed TEEX San Antonio Complex is significantly larger than the current location, offering a notable advantage due to the inclusion of extensive exterior training spaces and a classroom building spanning approximately 35,760 gross square feet. More than 75% of the proposed facility is dedicated to workforce training and instruction, including hands-on and lecture-type training, high-bay training space and exterior space for electric power, commercial driving and confined space training. The high bay lab in the building will provide one-of-a-kind training experience for students. The climatecontrolled space will allow for hands-on practical application of workforce skills during any type of weather conditions. The facility also provides office spaces for current and future staff positions, along with an entry lobby to enhance the arrival experience for students and visitors. Common spaces are included to provide students and visitors with an environment that is conducive to collaboration and engagement outside of the classroom and training. Included in this project is approximately (13) acres to accommodate electric power training, a pole climbing yard, covered transformer training, overhead and underground distribution training, a lay down yard with outdoor storage, commercial vehicle operations driver's training area, elevated work surface training area, water/wastewater training, confined space training, an outdoor classroom and secure vehicle storage area for heavy equipment, electric utility vehicles, trailers, and staging for emergency response equipment during an emergency occurring in the State of Texas.
