Crema's Take
“This isn't your typical coffee shop—it's the cafeteria hub of a welcoming technical college where students, instructors, and community members gather to study, collaborate, and learn in a beautifully designed space. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between energizing and calm, making it ideal whether you're settling in for hours of focused work or meeting up with classmates, and the wifi and laptop-friendly setup means you can stay as long as you need. It's a place where curiosity is genuinely encouraged and people feel supported, creating that rare kind of third space where quality instruction and genuine kindness are woven into everything.”

I have taken classes here for years, just because I like to learn. It is welcoming to all people, high quality instructors, demanding classes that offer support. Beautiful building, great cafeteria and wonderful library. I'll take classes till I'm 90...
Dental staff are angelic and very compassionate. I've had some mean hygienist before, the student and instructor I had were very kind and did a good job. For $40 you can't really beat the care given when most dental appointments can run over $400
I have attended school here and I have came here just to do studious things like working on my websites and a court case in their library. I just adore this school there is nothing I can say bad about it ( oh except it has a tendency to be on the frigid side) I used the library quite often as a non student. The building itself is just gorgeous inside and there are so many places to find a comfortable place to study , read, or just relax. The food in the cafeteria is very good also ,not that cheap, but good. `The new fitness center is awesome period. The gender neutral facilities are good for diversity as well as the disabled. But most importantly all levels of staff whether it's maintenance, instructors, cafeteria or advisors are all top notch personalities. This is a school that will do everything in it's power to help you succeed. They are dedicated to success of their students and will help through any situation that might slow you down or deter you , especially the RISE and TRIO programs. So don't be scared to just put your toe in the water and dive in at the deep end, lifeguards of life are always on duty. Encouragement is their middle name. The library staff is exceptional , helpful, knowledgeable and can guide you very efficiently in their department.
I am currently enrolled in the fitness wellness and health associates degree program. I have nothing but the best to say about my instructors. advisory staff that does an amazing job of making sure that we get the assignments and executing the projects.
I am I am beyond grateful that I signed up for Madison area technical college. It’s one of the best colleges and the most affordable colleges probably in the entire state of Wisconsin if not, it already is. I graduated in 2024 but I’m just now getting to this review, I went for baking and decorative arts and the teachers are just amazing and very understanding and work with you at your pace if and if you ever need extra help, they will gladly give it to you. I always wanted to be a cake decorator and going to this college really opened a lot of doors for me and really set the tone for my future and I’m very grateful. Thank you. Here are some pictures of what we made!
