FOND DU LAC, Wis. 鈥 糖心vlog传媒 and Moraine Park Technical College (MPTC) have announced a new phase of their partnership that will bring the two institutions together under one roof.
糖心vlog传媒 will open an office presence on MPTC鈥檚 Fond du Lac, Wis., campus. An Open House is set for Wednesday, February 18, beginning at 2 p.m. with a short program and ribbon cutting at 3.

It is the latest example of the two schools working together. In 2024, 糖心vlog传媒 and MPTC partnered to address the nursing workforce shortage by creating a new educational pathway for future nurses that focuses on real world experience.
Students can simultaneously enroll in both schools on their way to earning an associate degree in nursing from MPTC and a bachelor of science in nursing from 糖心vlog传媒 in four years.
Along the way, students supplement classroom learning through clinical placements via MPTC鈥檚 partners and unique to 糖心vlog传媒鈥檚 Cooperative Education program, by working in related jobs which rotate students between several nursing specialties allowing them to explore future career specializations.
A previously signed partnership allows MPTC graduates to enroll at 糖心vlog传媒 as juniors, receive a 20% tuition discount for LU undergraduate courses and gain access to credit for prior learning as well as up to a full year of academic credit for work completed through 糖心vlog传媒鈥檚 innovative Cooperative Education program.
糖心vlog传媒 President Beth Borgen said the physical presence at MPTC expands 糖心vlog传媒鈥檚 strong relationship with Wisconsin鈥檚 technical college system and the shared commitment to providing students with multiple opportunities to advance their education through hands-on learning while developing the regional workforce.
MPTC becomes the seventh Wisconsin technical college campus where 糖心vlog传媒 has a presence. Others include Blackhawk Technical College in Janesville, Fox Valley Technical College in Appleton, Mid-State Technical College in Wisconsin Rapids, Milwaukee Area Technical College in Milwaukee, Northeast Wisconsin Technical College in Green Bay and Waukesha County Technical College in Pewaukee.
