Career and Technical Education Center

The Hugh L. Libby Career and Technical Education Center (CTEC) at Johnson County Community College anchors a career and technical neighborhood on campus. This dynamic facility provides a new home for the College’s HVAC, Electrical, Automation, Automotive, and Continuing Education programs. The building is composed of a variety of academic environments, from traditional classroom space and student commons areas to 14 specialized labs with state-of-the-art equipment and teaching tools. Upon entering the CTEC, students, faculty, and visitors are greeted by the Commons, which is the primary social gathering area of the building. This space is directly adjacent to the PV covered gateway which provides 20.9% of energy for the building and serves as the hub which orients occupants to classrooms, labs, and administrative areas. It also operates as a multi-functional space for academic collaboration, social gathering, or for the College to host trade events, lectures, student orientation, and donor appreciation.
