Northeast Wisconsin Technical College - Green Bay

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Northeast Wisconsin Technical College, also called NWTC, is one of the 16 technical and community colleges in the Wisconsin Technical College System. The College serves nine Wisconsin counties with three campuses in Green Bay, Marinette, and Sturgeon Bay and five regional learning centers in Shawano, Oconto Falls, Crivitz, Florence, and Luxemburg.

Wisconsin's Technical Colleges were founded to train the workforce. In the early 1900s, most workers in Wisconsin received all of their higher-level education through the apprenticeship system - both job skills and academic skills. In order to standardize the education that these working young adults received in reading, writing, and math, the State of Wisconsin promoted the creation of city vocational schools. Schools sprang up in Green Bay and Marinette in 1913, followed in 1941 by a school in Sturgeon Bay. Their scope expanded to include adults of all ages who were interested in technical careers, whether or not they were in the workforce. In 1968, the three schools joined to become a single district in the Wisconsin Technical College System, serving part or all of nine counties under the name - Northeast Wisconsin Technical Institute. This name was changed in the late 1980's to Northeast Wisconsin Technical College.

Today, NWTC offers over 90 associate degrees, technical diplomas and apprenticeships, plus 81 certificates. The College also offers employee training and consulting through its Corporate Training and Educational Development department, serving 1,168 businesses and 25,069 employees each year.

The College serves over 43,000 people annually.
