GILLETTE, Wyo. — Gillette College will launch new career and technical education programs — including construction trades and chemical technology — backed by funding from a $40 million regional nuclear technology initiative. The expansion comes through the college’s participation in the Intermountain-West Nuclear Energy Corridor Tech Hub, which recently netted $31 million in federal funding from the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Economic Development Administration. Matching investments from regional partners brings the award to more than $40 million for Wyoming and Idaho. The funding will allow Gillette College to develop an entry-level construction trades program, establish a chemical technology curriculum and expand existing programs needed to support the nuclear energy sector.
