🧗♀️ What happens when future Physical Therapist Assistants trade the classroom for a climbing wall?
Growth. Teamwork. Confidence. And a lot of fun.
Our PTA students recently celebrated the end of the semester at (Sessions Climbing + Fitness), where they learned climbing techniques, challenged themselves on 40- and 60-foot walls, and supported one another every step of the way.
As they begin their final semesters before graduating in February 2027, we’re excited to watch them continue reaching new heights.
Thank you to Sessions Climbing + Fitness for welcoming our students and faculty and helping create an unforgettable experience.
The climb continues. 💙

Not every career path looks the same — and that’s okay.
Hands-on careers and skilled trades continue to play an important role in our communities every single day. At Western Technical College, we’ve seen students discover new strengths, build confidence, and explore career-focused education connected to real-world industries.
From healthcare and transportation to welding, HVAC, automotive, diesel, and electrical careers, skilled professionals help keep our communities moving forward.
Every student deserves the opportunity to explore the path that best aligns with their goals, interests, and future aspirations. 🙌
