Waukesha County Technical College Program Support Materials

Waukesha County Technical College focused on expansion – offering additional sections in its CNC/MTO and Welding/Metal Fab programs to meet increased industry demand in the communities we serve. New equipment purchased with grant funds allowed the college to offer these extra sections.  The college is also offering additional one-year certificates to better serve adult learners. Both programs allows students to earn multiple industry-recognized credentials as part of the program curriculum. The short-term certificates easily stack into one-year certificates, a technical diploma or AAS degree. Further enhancements include providing increased academic support in Blueprint Reading and Industrial Math classes, and the coordination of internships and externships to place students who’ve earned a credential into industry jobs with high potential for full-time employment.
