TACCA North Texas Chapter

🎓 Big win for Texas’ workforce and technical education!

Voters have approved an $850 million endowment for Texas State Technical College (TSTC) — funding that will expand training capacity, upgrade equipment, and strengthen campuses across the state.

🔧 With Texas projected to need 7,000 plumbers, 4,500 HVAC technicians, and 10,000 electricians by 2030, this investment comes at the perfect time.

📈 This fall alone, TSTC had to turn away 500 students due to limited space. The new fund will generate about $40 million annually to help meet demand and power the state’s skilled workforce.

🌟 Investing in technical education means investing in Texas’ future industries and communities.
