Pewaukee, Wis. (June 12, 2017) – The following statement was issued today by Director of Public Relations Shelly Kuhn of Waukesha County Technical College (WCTC), regarding President Donald Trump’s planned visit to the College on Tuesday, June 13.

We are honored by the opportunity to showcase our campus, students and employer partnerships on a national stage as part of the President’s visit to WCTC.

We take great pride in our track record of success at WCTC – creating high-wage career paths for our students in the skilled trades and meeting the workforce development needs of local business and industry. More than 150 employers work closely with WCTC to provide instruction for 11 apprenticeship paths in areas such as tool and die, machinist and welding fabricator.

We welcome President Donald Trump, his daughter and advisor Ivanka Trump, Education Sec. Betsy DeVos, Labor Sec. Alexander Acosta and Gov. Scott Walker to our campus. We are confident that this visit will help provide renewed focus on the importance of technical colleges to the health of our economy – both here in Wisconsin and around the country.
