Advisory Committee Minutes
Continuing a tradition which began more than 80 years ago, Wisconsin technical colleges offer citizens of Wisconsin an opportunity to expand their skills and
knowledge, find and keep good jobs and advance in their chosen careers. It is essential that occupational, technical and adult education relate to the immediate
and long-range needs of the community it serves, especially in the areas of business and industry.
To respond to these needs, the 1973 Wisconsin Statutes authorized technical college district boards to establish advisory committees representing all
occupational programs offered in its districts.
Currently, Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College works with approximately 62 advisory committees representing all associate degree, one- and two-year
technical diplomas, as well as federal project service areas. Nearly 650 advisory committee members from business and industry guide programs, projects,
and service areas. WITC recognizes that the program advisory committee is one of its most valuable resources in maintaining technologically current programs
and services which respond to the needs of the marketplace and provide a well-prepared work force for Northwest Wisconsin.
