MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The Milwaukee County Technical College (MATC) celebrated the completion and one year anniversary of the electrical power distribution training on Wednesday, Nov. 20. 

MATC partnered with We Energies to create a new campus and make the program more accessible to Milwaukee students.
