The Association is a forum for trustees of locally-governed, community-based colleges to come together from around the state to learn, share, promote, and create together. We are a private, non-profit organization comprised of the 144 district board members of Wisconsin's 16 technical college districts. Every district board member is automatically an Association member. Membership and participation cost are funded through the constituent colleges at no charge to the board member.

How you can participate and benefit

The Association meets four times each year in attractive locations around the state (typically, Friday through Saturday noon in January, April, July, and October). Meetings provide board members an opportunity to meet with their colleagues away from the district in an informal setting.

Quarterly meetings also provide opportunities to:
  • further develop your board member skills through professional development and educational programming;
  • learn about trends, new practices, and leading edge innovation occuring across our system;
  • promote your district and the system overall, and help you become an advocate for legislative initiatives supporting technical education;
  • share best practices - from trends in human resources, to new program offerings and emerging customer needs.

Working for You

The Association office serves as a liaison with the Wisconsin legislature, U.S. Congress, state and federal agencies, college presidents, WTCS State Board and staff, public employee labor organizations, and many other groups.
