School2Skills Tour - One Student’s Story For three years, the Chamber and the area schools have partnered with local businesses and Chippewa Valley Technical College (CVTC) to inspire more than 150 students, parents and educators to learn more about manufacturing, healthcare and STEM careers available in Chippewa Falls. Two years ago, Hunter Sullivan took one of the School2Skills tours with his Technical Education class from Chi Hi. At Advanced Laser Machining, he asked, “How do I get a job here?” He left with an job application in his hand and was hired a few weeks later. While working , he enrolled in the Machine Tool classes at CVTC and is on track to graduate from the program in August.
