CASE STUDY:

Here's an example of how the M-TEC facility can function:

Recently, a number of local heating, ventilation and air conditioning contractors (HVAC) met with the Home Builders Association of Livingston County and expressed difficulty in finding entry-level employees. M-TEC responded to this need by custom-designing a sequence of classes to provide 84 hours of classroom instruction and hands-on experience for interested students.

M-TEC is a joint partnership between the Michigan Economic Development Corporation, the Livingston County Workforce Development Council and MOTT Community College; EDC is proud to have played a role in its creation.
