Use of the property for advanced skills training of incumbent workers does not disqualify
the property for the exemption under this subdivision. This exemption includes up to five

except that if the building meets the requirements of clause (3), item (iii), then the exemption
includes up to ten acres of land on which the building is located and associated parking
areas on that land. If a parking area associated with the facility is used for the purposes of
the facility and for other purposes, a portion of the parking area shall be exempt in proportion
to the square footage of the facility used for purposes of apprenticeship training.
