Seven are currently open for business, including Bay de Noc Community College of Escanaba, Grand Rapids Community College of Holland, Kalamazoo Valley Community College, Lake Michigan College at Benton Harbor, Northwestern Michigan College at Traverse City and Oakland Community College at Auburn Hills.
The centers are usually about 20,000 sf to 30,000 sf in size, and offer vocational classes in jobs such as information technology and manufacturing. To reach more people, the colleges usually offer flexible training and hours of operation to meet individual training needs.
"Building on the success of our first round of M-TEC's, this second set promises to be just as effective, bringing needed training to these communities," says Doug Rothwell, President and CEO of the MEDC. "These facilities are leading the way as the future of Michigan's community-based, industry-driven training."
