  Garmann Miller | Where Do We Start? A Practical Guide to CTE Facility Planning

  Wednesday, July 22 · 9:45 AM – 10:30 AM · Magnolia

  Career-technical leaders often recognize the need for expanded, renovated, or more flexible facilities long before a project is clearly defined. This session will help CTE professionals and district leaders understand where to start before design begins, including how to identify facility needs, engage the right partners, involve staff and stakeholders, plan for flexible program space, and build early alignment around a realistic project path. Using Miami Valley Career Technology Center as an example, MVCTC Superintendent Dr. Nick Weldy, along with Garmann Miller’s lead planner and construction specialist Monica Bruaw; and architect Matt Hibner, AIA; from the facility planning and design team, will share practical lessons on moving from facility need to project planning with clarity, collaboration, and future workforce needs in mind.
