This initiative brings five institutions of higher education in Northwest and West Central Ohio into partnership to share existing Allied Health programs. The partner schools are Northwest State Community College, Terra State Community College, Rhodes State College, Marion Technical College and Clark State Community College. Students can enroll in any of these partner colleges while attending their hometown college or university with the help of distance education formats such as live video teleconferencing, webcasting, podcasting and other distance modalities. For example, Northwest State students can take their general education core courses at NSCC and become enrolled in the Occupational Therapy Assistant program at Rhodes State with a reduction in travel due to the use of distance education. Clinical education experiences may be available in your hometown as well.

Medical Laboratory Technician
Medical Laboratory Technician courses are offered in a blended format, using the distance education and live laboratory sessions at Marion one day a week. Clinical education experiences may be available in the local area and will be arranged during the last quarter in the program. Upon successful completion of the program, students received an Associate’s Degree from Marion Technical College. The program is designed to teach students how to collect and process specimens, perform basic analytical tests, monitor quality control and solve medical laboratory problems. Students in the program receive instruction in classroom sessions, lab practices and clinical experiences.
