Welcome to the Construction Center of Excellence

            Throughout Washington there are 11 colleges that have been designated Centers of Excellence, each focusing on a targeted industry that is strategic to the economic growth of the state. Renton Technical College is designated by the State Board for Community and Technical College as the Construction Center of Excellence (CCE). The CCE is Washington’s innovation hub for education and training, and is a premiere resource for industry, educators, and colleges.

What's New?

Washington's Green Building Sector is a Bright Spot in the Current Economic Downturn

A special thank you to our sponsors: Built Green, Washington State Building & Construction Trades, McKinstry, Pacific Mountain Alliance, Workforce Development Council of Seattle-King County and the Green Building Industry Skill Panel!

The video project is titled "Green Building: Jobs of the Future"
