Chippewa Valley Technical College

The CVTC District Board has approved the 2026-27 budget, reaffirming our commitment to delivering high-quality education while responsibly managing resources.

The balanced budget supports students, employers and communities across our district while keeping expenditures nearly flat, increasing less than 1% over the previous year. It also reflects our ongoing focus on preparing students for in-demand careers and strengthening Wisconsin’s workforce.

We’re grateful for the support of our taxpayers, employers and community partners who help make these opportunities possible.

Communities need dedicated, well-trained professionals who are ready to serve, protect, and lead with integrity. That's why Criminal Justice education matters.

Through hands-on learning, real-world scenarios, and guidance from experienced instructors, students gain the skills and confidence needed to pursue careers in law enforcement and public safety. As communities continue to evolve, the need for qualified officers and criminal justice professionals remains strong.

Today's Criminal Justice students from CVTC are preparing to make a difference tomorrow, one community at a time.
