The project was first announced earlier this summer, when organizers introduced it as a “Rebel One Stop” during a Board of Regents meeting.
At the time, UNLV officials say the goal is to expand access for adult learners, strengthen workforce pipelines, and support economic growth by connecting students, employers, city partners and residents across Southern Nevada.
The Las Vegas Civic Center is located at 70 Bonneville Ave, near Main Street.
