Fox Valley Technical College affirms that the education and training offered
by the College are designed to enable eligible graduates to acquire occupational
skills training necessary for full participation in the workforce. The
FVTC Board of Trustees, and with the support of the FVTC Foundation, Inc., is
offering graduate retraining which guarantees up to six (6) free credits of
additional instruction, plus other student services, to eligible FVTC
graduates.
