This new building will house the Ridgeland Campus’ Associate Degree Nursing, Practical Nursing, Occupational Therapy Assistant and Surgical Technology programs.“Madison County has grown 14.6 percent in the past 10 years; therefore, the addition of this new space has poised Holmes for future growth in our allied health programs,” said Holmes Ridgeland Campus Vice President Dr. Bronwyn Martin. “The facility’s location alongside I-55 will increase our visibility; therefore, emphasizing our footprint in Madison County. Watching projects of this magnitude come to fruition fills me with pride for Holmes and excitement for our future students and constituents.”Thrash Commercial Contractors, JH&amp;H Architects Planners Interiors, Benchmark Engineering &amp; Surveying, LLC, and Smithers Engineers + Consultants will make up the team designing and building the new facility. In addition to the classrooms and offices for the various health science programs, the new facility will also provide a large multipurpose space to be used as a shared resource. With banquet seating for 350 and lecture-style seating for 530, Holmes will be able to accommodate more group events for the local community.“The Health Science Building will allow the Health Science Programs on the Ridgeland Campus to continue to grow as well as expand our Health Science offerings,” said Director of Health Sciences Allison DeWeese. “The building has been a vision for several years. I am excited to see the vision become a reality.” Construction is expected to begin soon; contractors anticipate they'll begin mobilizing on the site in late January or early February.“The Career Technical Education department at Holmes is so excited to see this vision for our growing Health Sciences division become a reality,” said Vice President of Career Technical Education Dr. Amy Whittington. “Years of planning and hard work have been put into this project, and the growth of Health Sciences at Holmes has proven to be a successful investment for the college and communities it serves.”To see a full list of Career Technical programs at Holmes and get more information, visit https://holmescc.edu/programs/career-technical-programs/.</div></body>
