Building Tour: WTCC Public Safety Simulation Center

Please allow time for traffic to arrive on site and park. Tour starts promptly at 6pm.

This tour will provide the participants with the opportunity to see and learn more about Wake Technical Community College’s new Public Safety Simulation Center.  This center will provide much needed training for the first responders in the community and all over the State.  This 80,311 square foot facility will be used to provide safety training for active shooters and other police emergencies as well as fire and EMS improving the overall safety of our schools and communities.

This project will construct a reality‐based simulation center for training programs based in law enforcement, emergency medical service and unmanned aerial vehicle operations. The facility will include a training track to support emergency driver training, commercial driver's license training and motorcycle training. The simulation complex building is anticipated to be 77,824 square feet and will provide a 4D Immersive Interior Training Village, including a two‐story downtown street replica, along with multi‐function and specialty training rooms supporting law enforcement and fire/emergency rescue reality‐based training. Unmanned aerial systems and flight training tied into future Industry 4.0 programs supporting high-tech student training will also be incorporated into the facility. The project also includes associated extension of chilled water and heating water piping systems and the extension of roadways and parking.
