How Can MTI Change Your Life?
“MTI helped me tremendously. If I would’ve gone to a traditional college it would’ve taken me 2+ years to graduate. At MTI, I was able to get done in 9 months and got right out and got a job.”
Tricia
Medical Assisting Graduate
“[I] loved attending MTI! Great instructors, helpful staff, and when it came time to find a job after finishing the program, the Medical Assisting Program Director was so helpful with everything, from resumes to online applications. They really do want to see you succeed!”
Michelle
Medical Assisting Graduate
“Without the training from MTI, I definitely wouldn’t have this life. It’s a good steppingstone. You can get your foot into a great working place and then build your career from there.”
Bri
Medical Assisting Graduate
“Before starting at MTI, I did not know what I wanted to do as a career, but I knew I wanted to have a career in something I was passionate about. I first did the Phlebotomy Course and fell in love with healthcare. I started the Medical Assisting Program the very next month. I now work as a Certified Advanced Medical Assistant, and plan on becoming a manager within the next few years.”
Megan
Medical Assisting Graduate
“This is an absolutely amazing school. As long as you devote your time and do your work. They work with you the whole way and make sure you [understand] what they are teaching. I had a job as soon as I finished my externship, even before my graduation. Thank you for my pathway to my future.”
Monessa
Medical Assisting Graduate
“My work schedule before I went to MTI was crazy. I worked nights, I worked weekends, it made it rough on the kids. The instructors were there for you every step of the way. They understood we had families outside of MTI, and they worked with our schedules. They stuck with us until the end. MTI is a great place to go.”
Tiffany
Medical Assisting Graduate
“I accomplished something that I never thought I would. I wanted to be a medical assistant for a long time but didn't know what steps to take. The faculty at MTI guided and helped me so much. I'm so appreciative of their hardwork and dedication to the students! MTI is a wonderful school and the staff are amazing!”
Ashley
Medical Assisting Graduate
“It was a great introduction into health careers. I learned a lot. It shaped my experience in a positive way. It was my very first time being exposed to healthcare, and I am glad I chose MTI. I am currently furthering my education and my goal is to become a nurse.”
Makaila
