Standard Precautions
NWTC has a Health Emergency Plan, which follows the CDC’s and Wisconsin Department of Health’s
regulations for both students and staff. This may require individual restriction of access to campuses and
services in case of a health crisis. No student grade penalties will apply.
Starfish – Early Alert and Kudos System
NWTC uses “Starfish” to connect students, faculty, and staff to support satisfactory progress in classes
each semester. Students may receive “kudos” from faculty to acknowledge good work or “flags” to connect
with faculty to address concerns, ”referrals” to services t hat are needed to support learning, or “success
plans”, for a step-by-step list to get back on track academically. Students can also use “Starfish” to make
appointments with staff, such as academic advisors and/or faculty. Faculty and staff can view information
about students, including but not limited to, kudos, flags, appointments, and messages, to create a better-
informed, wrap-around support network to intervene and refer when classroom issues need further
attention.
Students are encouraged to log into Blackboard>Starfish weekly for messages from faculty and advisors,
upcoming appointment reminders, and a list of services to support learning.
Transcripts
Upon successful completion of a class of study, students may request copies of their official NWTC credit
transcript. Official credit transcripts can be ordered online at www.nwtc.edu for a $10.00 fee. Unofficial
transcripts may be viewed and printed on my.NWTC for no charge. On-demand transcripts may be
requested on the Green Bay campus for a $20.00 fee.
Weather-Related School Closing
In the event of severe weather, the College will be using the following policy when closing any of its
campuses and/or regional centers. It is NWTC’s general philosophy to provide education for work. Like its
business partners, the College will strive to remain open to serve its customers.
