Fast-track Learning Opportunities Generate Media Interest

In its Jan. 27 and Jan. 28 news shows, 13WHAM News aired a segment about MCC's new academic offerings available starting in spring 2021. The report notes MCC's role in the region's economic recovery efforts:

"MCC is working to help fast-track people from jobs that won't come back to those where there is a critical need."

In addition to an interview with MCC addictions counseling student Jennifer Kosinski, reporter Jane Flasch also spoke with: 

Provost and Vice President of Academic Services Dr. Wade about:
-- the 28-week Accelerated Addictions Counseling certificate program
-- the Care Coordination  ̶  Community Health Navigation certificate program

Vice President of Economic and Workforce Development and Career Technical Education Dr. Oldham about:
-- the 11-week Mechatronics Jumpstart program
-- the AWS Academy Cloud Practitioner course (www.workforceforward.com/AWS):
