At Madison College, we believe in the transformative power of education, especially for our rural students. 

Seamless access to higher education is not just empowering individuals; it invigorates Wisconsin communities and businesses. Our campuses in Fort Atkinson, Portage, Reedsburg and Watertown serve as dynamic learning centers deeply rooted in their communities. These campuses, known for excellence in nursing, manufacturing, and technology training, provide convenient, accessible pathways for students from all walks of life to achieve their dreams. Whether they are first-generation college students, returning learners, transfer students, or professionals aiming to upskill, our students find success and support at Madison College.

Did you know that 76% of our graduates choose to live and work right here in our district? Research shows that employers believe local technical colleges like ours are crucial to their success. Madison College graduates enhance the workforce and contribute to vibrant neighborhoods by supporting their communities, schools, and businesses. The combination of accessible education, strategic collaborations with local employers, and the vital services we provide to rural communities enhances the communities where we live and work.
