Technical colleges form alliance

A new arrangement linking Milwaukee Area Technical College, Waukesha County Technical College and Gateway Technical College could help state employers.

In the first such alliance in Wisconsin, the three neighboring colleges are teaming up to serve manufacturing companies with a Web site, easier access to courses and, if necessary, customized worker training. Known as an advanced manufacturing network, the arrangement is being duplicated elsewhere in the state to serve manufacturers and train workers for an expected resurgence in Wisconsin factory jobs.
