Education

The Heart of the Valley Chamber believes that our community’s future is dependent on a strong, viable public school system.  A world-class education system from kindergarten to college or technical school is essential if Wisconsin business and industry is to remain competitive in the global economy.  We need to pursue basic changes in the way we structure and deliver education in this state to include measuring outcomes, improving accountability, rewarding excellence and encouraging innovation. The Chamber supports the establishment of tax incentives to encourage the expansion of employer-sponsored education and training opportunities in the workplace, as well as in our colleges, universities and technical schools.
