GREEN BAY – Northeast Wisconsin Technical College (NWTC) recently announced a new academic restructure, which Kathryn Rogalski – NWTC’s vice president of academic affairs and workforce development – said is a significant step forward in how the college delivers education and workforce training across the region.
Moving forward, Rogalski said NWTC recognizes its Academic Affairs and Workforce Development divisions as six newly established colleges:
- College of Allied Health
- College of Business
- Communication and Social Sciences
- College of Nursing
- College of Public Safety
- College of STEM (science, technology, engineering and math)
This change, she said, is designed to create stronger pathways into and beyond the institution – aligning programs with industry needs, expanding student opportunities and ensuring long-term success for graduates and the communities they serve.
“This is about more than reorganizing departments – it’s about making it easier for students to start, stay and succeed,” she said.
By more closely aligning academic programs with workforce demands, NWTC President Kristen Raney said the college is unlocking new opportunities for collaboration, talent development and regional economic growth.
“It’s a strategic investment in our future – one that positions NWTC to continue delivering exceptional education, strengthening workforce readiness and driving regional progress for years to come,” she said.
