MTI Alumni Stories
Tricia
Medical Assisting, 2012
鈥淢TI helped me tremendously. If I would鈥檝e gone to a traditional college it would鈥檝e 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.鈥�
Dylan
HVAC/R Technician, 2022
鈥淢TI 100% changed my life. Easily one of the most rewarding risks I鈥檝e taken. I quit my job in two days and started the HVAC/R Program on a limb, not knowing whether I would like it or not, or even be able to pay my bills. Not only did it 鈥榩ay鈥� off, but I truly love the career field. I was born to do this, and I can鈥檛 thank MTI and the teachers enough for giving me all the education to make it happen! MTI was the best decision I鈥檝e ever made.鈥�
Audrey
Dental Assisting, 2022
鈥淚 was a 2020 high school graduate with no clue on what I wanted to do. I tried a big university, I tried a community college, and then I heard about MTI and thought I鈥檇 give it a shot. I loved it so much. The campus staff is incredible, and I had the best instructor ever.鈥�
Katie
Medical Assisting, 2019
鈥淚 didn鈥檛 even know what dialysis was when I was given Davita as my externship site. Without MTI, I wouldn鈥檛 have discovered my love and passion for dialysis.鈥�
Russell
HVAC/R Technician, 2017
鈥淚 loved the course of study and hands-on lab work. I loved my experience and learned a lot.鈥�
Terry
Welding, 2021
鈥淏efore I graduated MTI, I was making $14 an hour as a diesel mechanic. I had a daughter and my son was about to be born. After graduating, I found a job for $20 an hour which helped a lot. Shortly after, I found a job for $30 an hour TIG welding aluminum. I wouldn鈥檛 be able to provide for my family if I never went to the school.鈥�
