Lincoln Tech’s Houston Campus Recognized for Excellence in Design and Construction
Parsippany, NJ, Nov. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lincoln Educational Services Corporation (NASDAQ: LINC), a national leader in specialized technical training for 80 years, announced today that its Houston, TX campus has been recognized for an industry award in design and construction. O’Donnell/Snider, the Houston-based construction firm which built the campus, received a Silver APEX Award from Houston AGC, the local chapter of the Associated General Contractors of America. AGC is the commercial construction industry’s leading national association representing general contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, and manufacturers.
Lincoln Tech’s Houston campus, which celebrated its grand opening earlier this year and was built by O’Donnell/Snider in 2025, was granted the award in AGC’s Higher Education category.
“As Lincoln Tech expands its presence across the country, we value partnerships with organizations like O’Donnell/Snider to ensure our students will be training in some of the finest facilities anywhere,” says Scott Shaw, Lincoln Tech’s President and CEO. “Building a campus to meet the needs of a diverse group of students, training for future careers in an equally diverse range of industries, is no small feat – and we could not be prouder or more grateful for the work performed by Adam Boak and the entire O’Donnell/Snider team.”
“Receiving an AGC Houston APEX Award for Lincoln Tech’s Houston campus is a tremendous honor and reflects the commitment, collaboration, and execution of the entire project team,” adds Boak, Senior Project Manager at O'Donnell/Snider Construction. “Successfully delivering an educational facility requires thoughtful planning, proactive coordination and a clear understanding of the client's goals. Working closely with Lincoln Tech and our project partners, we are proud to have delivered a facility that supports hands-on technical education and creates opportunities for students entering the skilled trades.”
Boak oversaw construction of the campus and helped coordinate the collaborative effort required to deliver the project. His leadership throughout construction supported the execution of a complex renovation and helped bring Lincoln Tech’s vision for the Houston campus to life.
Gary Musciano of Herbst-Musciano Architects contributed to the architectural vision and design coordination for the campus, helping transform the former Amazon facility into a purpose-built technical training environment. His work helped align the building design with Lincoln Tech’s instructional programs and the specialized needs of students training in the transportation and skilled trades industries.
The Houston campus, Lincoln Tech’s second facility in Texas, is at the site of a converted former Amazon facility at 2000 South Lockwood Drive. It includes approximately 100,000 square feet of classroom and training space for programs in the automotive service, welding, HVAC-R and electrical fields. The campus is strategically located on I-45, just minutes from I-69 and in the heart of one of Houston’s busiest commercial corridors.
