Building Tomorrow’s Workforce Together
KTEC Schools of Innovation Industry Partnership Program
Investing in Students. Strengthening Industry. Transforming Our Community.
The future workforce isn’t something we wait for. It’s something we build.
At KTEC Schools of Innovation, students aren’t just preparing for graduation. They’re preparing to become tomorrow’s welders, engineers, healthcare professionals, entrepreneurs, programmers, skilled tradespeople, and business leaders.
Every day, our students work alongside industry professionals, solve authentic business challenges, earn college credit, obtain industry certifications, and develop the skills employers need most.
Now, we’re inviting businesses to become part of that journey.

A New Era for KTEC
KTEC continues to redefine education through innovation.
The 2025–2026 school year marked the successful launch of our unified 4K–12 educational model, bringing elementary, middle, and high school students together under one mission: preparing students for the future through hands-on learning and academic excellence.
This vision continues with our new campus at 1901 63rd Street, representing a $17 million investment in career-connected education.
The new facility features:
Advanced manufacturing, welding, transportation, and construction labs
Technology-rich classrooms
Engineering and innovation spaces
Flexible project-based learning environments
Industry-standard equipment
Gymnasium and student collaboration spaces
Together, these investments position KTEC as one of Wisconsin’s most innovative career-focused schools.
Why Industry Partnerships Matter
No school can prepare students for tomorrow’s workforce alone.
The strongest educational experiences happen when business leaders, educators, and students work together.
Through partnerships with organizations like Greenlee, Rigid, Snap-on, Festo, Lincoln Electric, NC3, and many others, students experience learning that mirrors today’s workplace.
These relationships provide:
Career exploration
Industry mentorship
Apprenticeships
Internships
Curriculum guidance
Project-based learning
Equipment and technology
Employment opportunities
