"The BTC Ed-Venture Program has been an integral component of our Mercy Health System Leadership Development Academy. Each semester, the class spends a day at BTC challenging themselves and learning to communicate, build trust, develop teams, and improve leadership skills. The Ed-Venture course is always the favorite session for all of our participants." Beth Pierce |

"I have partnered with Blackhawk Technical College's Business and Community Development division on several occasions over the past few years. Whether it's the free courses offered through the DoL grant, customized on-site training for computers, teambuilding, or train-the-trainer programs, applying for state training grants for our organization, or teambuilding and communication training at the Ed-Venture facilities, both the instructors and the BCD staff have exceeded my expectations for professionalism, flexibility, and creativity."

"Of our five years (participating in your Ed-Venture program), this was the best. Our players had a great experience. It also may have helped us to our 8-win regular season start." James Morrow |

"Thanks again for a wonderful night! You started another Leadership Class off to a great start. The other advantage for the teachers is that they can stand back and observe the interaction of the group as it develops and get a feel for what is ahead for the year." Susan Wetherington |

"Our staff overwhelmingly agreed it was the best group activity/outing we have done with students all year. We feel it very positively affected self-confidence and peer interactions among our students. We will be contacting you about coming again next year - great job!" Marcia Luety |

"Once again, we thoroughly enjoyed our time with you in the Ed-Venture Ropes course. The kids always share how much fun they had...as well as how they learned some important life skills and lessons along the way. Their participation in your program brings about a greater sense of team unity and trust - concepts that don't always come easy to the kids that we work with. They also learn to take positive risks in an environment that is safe, structured, and has positive role models encouraging them to 'reach higher.' We sincerely appreciate your time, passion, and patience in working with our young people and look forward to seeing you again soon." Jennifer Ramsdail |
