The Project Achievement Award, which recognizes outstanding achievement in construction management, is presented to Rudolph and Sletten in the category of Building Renovations Greater than $10 Million.

The expansion includes enclosing the interior courtyard, breezeway areas and converting into interior space. These buildings comprise the first LEED-certified project in the Grossmont-Cuyumaca Community College District. BD+C
