As of April 1, MTEC continues the suspension of our classroom training.
Smart Choices Responsible Service Certification and Smart Choices Cannabis Retail Certification Training Programs will continue to be available online.
The MTEC Training Centre is temporarily closed, with staff working remotely. Email will be responded to daily.
We continue to closely monitor the announcements from the Province and hope to be able to reopen and resume classroom training mid to late May.
With the continued demand for Food Handler Certification, we will offer classes of 10, practicing Social Distancing and the Manitoba Health Department regulations. We want employees to be ready to work as soon as food services businesses open again. Dates and times for these classes will be updated on our website.
Because we currently cannot deliver classroom training, we are delivering complimentary training to individuals in Winnipeg and throughout the province via Zoom.
COVID-19 has had a devastating impact on the tourism, hospitality and retail industries in Manitoba.
Many restaurants are offering curb-side, delivery and take out service. Supporting these businesses is one of the ways we can support this industry.
We are a resilient Province and we look forward to having this behind us.
Sincerely,
Shannon Fontaine, CEO Manitoba Tourism Education Council (MTEC)
