About M-TEC

As part of the Michigan Skilled Worker Initiative, in 1998 the Michigan Economic Development Corporation funded 18 Michigan Technology Education Centers (M-TECs) around the state. The centers specialize in training programs in high-wage, high-skill, high-demand occupations. The state provided construction grants for each center. Center sites were determined through a competitive selection process.
A visionary program utilizing the latest in technology and training, the M-TEC at Henry Ford Community College is a 30,000-square-foot specialized facility built entirely with a $5 million state grant for training, retraining and updating job skills of Ford Motor company workers, the workers of other Michigan companies and the general public.
The center targets manufacturing, health care, information technology and education.
Members of the MTEC Training Alliance board of directors provide leadership, resources and referrals to the center.
