Midlands Technical College, Local School District Officials Strategize on How Students Can Get
Great Jobs Quickly Summer 2018
For three years, MTC and representatives from every school district in Lexington, Richland, and Fairfield counties have participated in the annual K-12 Summit to shape realistic solutions for high school students to get the education needed to find good-paying jobs upon graduation. One focus of the 2018 Summit was how Midlands businesses could expand their pipeline of future employees by making an investment in students while they are still in college or high school.
“Our overall goal in holding the Summit is to increase higher education opportunities for all the students we serve,” said MTC President Rhames. “We focused on how local businesses who rely on MTC students as future employees can have a stake in ensuring they get highly trained students into the workforce as soon as possible.”
Rhames challenged the attendees to explore ways to increase the number of students graduating from school district technology centers. These students could take career-oriented programs at MTC and meet the workforce needs of the community more quickly.
Real Results: Growing Businesses with
Online Training Summer 2018
Businesses looking to expand their training capacity and their revenue are discovering MTC’s online opportunities. Avtec, a Lexington company, worked side-by-side with MTC to develop an innovative online training program that eliminates the company’s employee training backlog without losing the personal touch of a traditional classroom.
“We know our product. We know what needs to be trained, but we don’t always know the best ways to train. Midlands Technical College brought the curriculum development and the online expertise,” said Tracy Stone, Avtec Customer Experience Manager.
