MONROE - With the start of the fall semester, all of the Wisconsin post-secondary schools, which includes all four- and two-year University of Wisconsin schools and all 16 Wisconsin Technical Colleges, have signed transfer agreements. Twenty-seven credits offered from BTC's Monroe Campus will now directly transfer seamlessly throughout the state's educational system.
Blackhawk Tech has been refining their programming especially as it relates to Green County. The Monroe Campus location is exploring adding programming from its public safety division. BTC is pursuing dispatch, emergency medical and paramedic training as new additions to the Monroe Campus. The new Blackhawk Tech Simulation Lab, located within Monroe Clinic, is designed to support the RN, EMT, and paramedic training programs, as well as a useful training facility for Monroe Clinic staff.
Monroe Campus is offering opportunities under the area of lab science. The Monroe Campus has structured its programs into stackable units in which a student can gain a skill set and then job out. The student can then choose to return to BTC and build on the skills they previously gained. Students can later return to BTC and stack on a one-year technical diploma as a Laboratory Technicia. The student also has the option to stack on another year of education and complete the Medical Lab Technician program which gives them additional skill sets to work in a medical lab setting according to Urban.
Two new programs being pursued under the health and human services division. The lab sciences program on the Monroe Campus is currently building curriculum for a food science associates degree designed to fit with many of the area food production facilities.
The Monroe Campus will also be the site of a new BTC health information technology associates degree slated to begin in the fall of 2015. In conjunction with the new program, BTC will begin offering a medical coding technical diploma which can be completed by a student on a part-time basis.
The Monroe Campus location will continue to offer the basic 120-hour certified nursing assistant program, the 72-hour advanced nursing assistant program, completion of up to 30 nursing pre-petitioning credits, an on-site nursing skills lab, local clinical experience, and training at the new Blackhawk Tech Simulation Lab.
The Monroe Campus extended its multiple agriculture based certificates and diplomas. BTC's Monroe Campus offers programs in agriculture, which includes an 18-credit agribusiness specialist certificate, which prepares students to become farm owners or managers, cropping specialists, herdsmen, milking technicians and more. A student can also earn a 33-credit agribusiness specialist technical diploma, which expands their career possibilities to include agriculture product sales, fertilizer applicator, crop scouting associate, agriculture research technician, and more.
The agribusiness specialist technical diploma transfers to Southwest Technical College's associate degree program and to Unversity of Wisconsin-Platteville's bachelor's degree.
Early childhood associate degree can be completed entirely on the Monroe Campus. Also within the business division is the 70-credit, two-year early childhood associates degree which can be completed on the Monroe Campus. Once completed, via one of the many BTC transfer agreements, a student can go on to complete UW-Whitewater's bachelor program.
The Monroe Campus also offers a complete course rotation for the business management associates degree and marketing programs.
