Growing the College | CORPORATE AND CONTINUING EDUCATION
> MTC was one of only 39 grant recipients nationwide to receive a U.S. Department of Labor $4 million grant for Midlands TechHire to provide accelerated training for computer technicians, network administrators, server administrators, and web developers. In its first year, 73 students received tuition scholarships, career guidance, soft skills training, job referrals, and resume and interview assistance. The program included paid internships from corporate partners such as Bristeeri Technologies, Carolina Business Equipment, DuBose Web Group, and UCI Medical Affiliates.
> MTC moved its most popular offerings to the instructor-led, online environment to enable individuals and businesses to have access to rich content and excellent instructors at times that are convenient. Students can earn Supervisory Certificates and Accounting and Payroll Certificates completely online. Other MTC instructor-led online classes include Project Management Fundamentals and all levels of Excel and Outlook.
> MTC worked with a local software manufacturer to convert its face-to-face training to an online, instructor-led, interactive format. This innovative approach allows the company to train its customers around the world without the expense of travel. The company anticipates an increase in sales and system implementations due to the ability to train larger numbers of customers.
