To ensure enough skilled workers for state employers, Walker's 2015-'17 budget plan also calls for: ■■ Freezing tuition for technical college students who go into high-demand fields, a pledge he made previously on the campaign trail ■ Making all state funding for technical college dependent on their performance in meeting work force training targets. No further details were provided. ■ Increasing state scholarships by an undisclosed amount for students going into technical education classes ■ Putting $5 million a year into the Transform Milwaukee jobs program and $3 million over two years for other areas of the state, including Kenosha and Racine counties. The proposal appeared to call for new state spending in this area but a spokeswoman for Walker did not immediately respond to a request for confirmation of that. ■ Allowing candidates with "real-life experience" to take compentency tests to gain teaching licenses FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
