Hands-on lab is back in session

 

[July 11, 2020] 

Midwest Technical Institute (MTI)’s Springfield, Illinois campus location is now open following safety and social distancing practices. Students enrolled for the July 6th, 2020 start date will receive one hundred percent of their education on campus, with the exception of the Basic Nursing Assistant (BNA) and Phlebotomy Course. Current BNA students will continue their training with a blended online and/or on campus schedule. Enrollment for future BNA and Phlebotomy Courses on campus will resume at a later date.

“We are so excited to welcome back students who are ready to begin their hands-on training at MTI. We worked diligently to coordinate the delivery of education online during COVID-19 and are now ready to have students back on campus to receive their hands-on training in the classroom and lab. As always, we will follow CDC guidelines to help protect the health and safety of students and staff,” Shelia Wilson, Campus President.

All staff and students must adhere to safety guidelines on campus, including only entering and exiting the building through designated doors, frequently washing hands with soap and water, using the hand sanitizer and hands-free trash cans readily available throughout the campus, wearing a face covering while at the campus, as well as any required personal protective equipment during lab training, and adhering to social distancing.

MTI is committed to keeping a clean environment and will be disinfecting and cleaning all frequently touched surfaces regularly. MTI takes the health and safety of our students, faculty, and staff very seriously, and will continue to follow the guidelines offered by the Center for Disease Control (CDC), as well as those set forth by our campus community, including the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH), our accrediting agency, the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC), and the county health department guidelines.
