BSC is offering classes in power plant technology and process plant technology to students in Wisconsin starting this fall through a partnership with Fox Valley Technical College in Appleton.

BSC and Fox Valley Technical College (FVTC) recently formed the partnership to help meet the needs of high-demand energy careers in Wisconsin and upper Michigan.

Courses from BSC will be offered online, says Bruce Emmil, associate vice president for energy technology programs at BSC. “Fox Valley faculty will teach some courses, such as math and electricity, that are part of their curriculum in other programs.”

President Larry C. Skogen says this partnership addresses BSC’s strategic plan and the goal to develop national and international partnerships. “We are developing these kinds of partnerships to increase the student population, and also to work more efficiently in meeting industry’s workforce needs,” he said.
