Battle Creek motivates. With a modest cost of living, a climate less severe than Michigan’s western shoreline, and a vitality that permeates education, arts, culture, and recreation, Battle Creek residents rest assured their community extends a welcoming hand.
From pre-school to higher education, to the skilled trades and fine arts, innovative and nationally-recognized educational and training programs prepare Battle Creek residents for its breakfast food processing, world-class auto parts supply, and dynamic aviation and aerospace industries.
Battle Creek reflects the best values of America’s heartland. Its Linear Park winds throughout the city for family strolls, rigorous jogs, or bicycling in a scenic setting, while elsewhere in Battle Creek historic sites are carefully preserved. Battle Creek invests in technologies for tomorrow, taking full advantage of its outstanding public infrastructure and a city-wide OC-48 optical Ethernet fiber ring. |

The people, instructors, and facilities in Battle Creek ensure access and training for every business or personal need.
The Regional Manufacturing Technology Center, also designated by the State of Michigan as an “M-TEC,” is operated by Kellogg Community College, and offers just-in-time training in ten industrial skilled trades programs. An open-entry/open-exit enrollment option allows students to enroll at their capability level, and attend during whatever hours they find convenient. Internet-based learning supplements the on-site academic program for those who wish instruction at home or in the workplace.
If none of the M-TEC programs meet your needs, customized training will be designed to your specifications.
