FLEXIBILITY
Today’s students often face the task of balancing education
with work and family responsibilities.
Classes at MTC are offered during days, evenings, weekends,
on-line, and at various locations each quarter to allow students
to develop a schedule that matches their needs. MTC also
offers one-time-per-week programs.
The academic year is divided into three quarters (fall, winter,
and spring) of about 11 weeks each and a Summer Quarter,
which is seven weeks. Quarters begin in September, January,
March, and June; however, an increasing number of courses are
flexibly scheduled, beginning and ending at varying times. Add
to this the growing number of online classes, concentrated
formats, and distance learning options, and you’ll see that MTC
puts you in the driver’s seat of your education.
Marion Technical College is proud of its rich history of serving
students and the community. The following sections will help
you learn more about the college and what you can expect
from a Marion Technical College education.
MTC AT A GLANCE
In 1971, Marion Technical College (MTC) began a history of
service, opening its doors to 187 students enrolled in four
technical programs. To date, 35,000 students have attended
classes in more than 40 associate degree and certificate
programs in Business, Engineering, Allied Health, Information,
Nursing, and Public Service technologies.
Over the years, MTC has developed courses and programs to
meet the educational needs of the community, preparing over
6,000 associate degree graduates for dynamic professional and
technical careers. Faculty and staff use national and regional
career data and partnerships with employers and other
professionals to develop programs that match current and
future workplace needs and university transfer opportunities.
Additionally, the College’s Center for Workforce
Development (CWD) continues to creatively meet the needs of
business and industry, such as employee testing and evaluation,
job analysis, consulting, and customized training.
To support student success among a diverse student body,
the College offers a full range of career services, financial aid
counseling, tutoring, recreational activities, a bookstore,
computer labs, organizations, technology, and publications.
An equally important part of attending college is making
friends and memories. MTC sponsors various clubs and
organizations, intramural athletics, unique Outdoor Pursuit
programs, recreational and common areas, a gymnasium,
aerobics and weight room facilities, meeting rooms, wireless
Internet lounge, library, and other areas.
Throughout the school year, a schedule of fun-filled campus
events and activities provides students with opportunities to
meet and interact with new and old friends, College staff, and
members of the Marion community. Marion Technical College
is located on a 180-acre campus just east of the city of Marion
on State Route 95, sharing facilities with The Ohio State
University at Marion (OSUM).
QUALITY
Courses and programs at MTC are designed by faculty in
cooperation with employers to equip students with the skills,
knowledge, and competence they will need in the workplace
and/or to transfer to another college or university to continue
their education.
All programs use advisory committees comprised of
education, industry, business, and community leaders and
practitioners to advise College faculty and staff on employment
needs, transfer opportunities, course and program content,
learning assessment, facilities, policies, and equipment. These
advisory committees ensure that programs are developed and
operated in accordance with the needs of the community and
reflect the latest employment trends and practices.
Additionally, through the Student Learning Assessment
process, faculty continuously improve teaching and learning,
and ensure that students are assessed in accordance with
employers’ expectations.MTC students also succeed when they
transfer to a four-year university or college.
MTC’s programs are approved by and meet or exceed state
educational guidelines set by the Ohio Board of Regents, the
Higher Learning Commission, and other national accrediting
agencies
A major quality focus at MTC is faculty selection and
development. The approximate 150 full-time and community
faculty members are academically and professionally
competent men and women who possess a wealth of
professional experience and formal education. They are chosen
selectively on the basis of their academic qualifications,
professional experience, technical expertise, and commitment
to the College’s educational mission and purpose. Full-time
faculty often pursue advanced degrees and credentials that
augment their teaching and/or complete externship
experiences that put them into the workforce to experience
similar challenges that graduates will also face.
WHY CHOOSE MTC?
AFFORDABILITY
As a state-supported college, MTC offers high quality
education at an affordable cost. When compared to other
institutions, MTC’s average annual cost (tuition and fees) is 57%
less than the average cost for Ohio’s public four-year
universities (main campuses).
To further assist students, MTC offers an aggressive financial
aid program, providing access to a variety of grants, loans,
scholarships, student employment opportunities, and other
financial aid resources. Last year, the College awarded more
than $6 million in financial assistance to help make college
more affordable.
CONVENIENCE
MTC is easily accessible from most area communities. For
Marion area residents attending MTC, this means avoiding
time-sapping commutes and the expenses of living away from
home. MTC also offers convenience with basic services such as
parking and an on-Campus bookstore.
MTC serves students from Marion, Delaware, Crawford,
Morrow, Wyandot, Hardin, and Union counties, as well as
students who commute from surrounding counties.

perceptions, and experiences to strengthen the College’s realworld approach to learning.
PERSONAL ATTENTION
Small class size at MTC allows for high levels of interaction
between instructor and student. The College also utilizes an
advising system and tutoring program that supports the needs
of individual students.
Each year, many students ‘‘transfer in’’ to MTC from larger
colleges because they prefer smaller class size and more
personal attention.
Integrity
MTC believes that its actions and reactions not only reflect its
mission and goals, but are tempered with the basic principles of
honesty, respect, professionalism, fairness, candor, and ethical
behavior. College practices are consistent with institutional
policies, and employees conduct themselves as extensions of
the College.
WORKPLACE EXPERIENCE
Nearly all applied degree programs at MTC incorporate one
or more structured workplace experiences to link students’
classroom/lab skills to on-the-job experiences. Each experience
(clinical, practicum, co-operative education, internship, etc.) is
supervised by faculty and participating employers who serve in
their role as ‘‘workplace mentor’’.
A number of MTC students have been hired by sponsoring
employer sites after graduation.
Community
MTC thrives on a multi-level sense of community. Advisory
boards comprised of interested community representatives
shape curriculum content. Many of the College’s most
significant programming advancements stem from collaborative
partnerships with area businesses and organizations and
agreements with other colleges and universities. Each day, the
College shares and strengthens a ‘‘family’’ bond with
employees, and shepherds students into the ‘‘communities’’ of
higher learning and the workplace.
TRANSFER PROGRAMS
Many options for transferring your MTC credits to other
college and universities are available. See page 5 for details.
ACCREDITATION
The process of accreditation consists of a formal external
review that assures that the College and individual programs
meet stringent national standards of excellence. Individual
program accreditation further ensures quality curriculum that
enables graduates to qualify for applicable certification
examinations and/or licensures.

not eligible for state and federal financial aid.
You can register for selective service at any area post office
or via www.sss.gov.
STUDENT SERVICES
Admission
Marion Technical College has an “open door” admission
policy – if you are a high school graduate or have successfully
completed the General Education Development (GED) test, you
are eligible for admission to the College as a General Admission
Student. If you do not meet these criteria, you may still be
eligible for admission (see Admission Packet).
Certain academic programs are limited in enrollment. You
should submit the MTC Application for Admission to the MTC
Office of Admission well in advance of your intended starting
date. For programs having plenty of seats, early application is
not necessary; however, a timeframe of three months in
advance of your intended start date is recommended. High
school students should apply early during their senior year
(especially if applying for financial aid).
E-mail any questions regarding admission criteria or
procedures to [email protected].
Student Resource Center
Located in Room 183 of the Technical Education Center, the
Student Resource Center (SRC) is a hub of support and services
for MTC students. It provides students, faculty, and staff with a
variety of academic materials, services, and equipment.
The SRC is your resource for:
• Tutoring
• Make-Up Testing
• Audiovisual Equipment
• Study Areas
• Educational Materials
• Counseling
• Mentorship Program
• Disability Services
Advising
The College provides you with advising for your major or
program throughout your enrollment. After you have met with
an admission counselor and selected your major/program, you
typically will meet with a department member from your
chosen major/program to discuss course and program
requirements and a study plan. Your first quarter class
schedule will usually be developed at this time so that you may
register for classes. You should see your dean, director, or
program coordinator for advising until you receive the name of
your permanent academic advisor.
For students without ACT scores, the first interface with the
SRC and its personnel is Basic Skills Assessment (COMPASS)
testing, a requirement for all students before selecting initial
English and/or math courses. COMPASS is offered free and is
designed to help match you with the appropriate courses for
your current academic skill level. Assessments are also made in
the areas of writing, reading, and mathematics.
Additionally, students must complete the Technology Skills
Test to gauge their general computer and keyboarding skills.
COMPASS and technology skills testing can take up to two
hours, so students are encouraged to drop by and discuss
3
• Some courses are expected to have a prerequisite of a
minimum score achieved on the Reading section of the
COMPASS assessment. Check the course description section of
the catalog carefully for new or changed prerequisites.
• The new minimum scores apply to all students, including
those who may have previously completed a placement
assessment. Therefore, effective Summer Quarter 2009, any
student who needs to complete MTC’s ENG 1090A English
Composition I or MTH 1200A College Algebra and Trigonometry
and has not done so, will place into these courses according to
the following new COMPASS/ASSET scores:
• an English COMPASS score of 69 or higher (or equivalent
ASSET score) or an English ACT score of 18 or higher (or an
equivalent SAT score) qualifies you for placement into ENG
1090A English Composition I
• an algebra COMPASS score of 65 or higher (or equivalent
ASSET score) or a Mathematics ACT score of 22 or higher (or an
equivalent SAT score) qualifies you for placement into MTH
1200A College Algebra and Trigonometry
If you score below the scores indicated above, you will place
into the appropriate College Foundation course(s) that will help
you succeed in ENG 1090A and/or MTH 1200A depending upon
which courses are required in your program. A list of College
Foundation courses and other COMPASS assessment
information is available at the Student Resource Center (SRC).
Your advisor will assist you in this process.
testing times and requirements with SRC staff. Students should
complete all testing before meeting with an advisor to ensure
placement in appropriate classes.
Policies and procedures regarding testing may be found in
the Student Handbook.
Additionally, the SRC serves as MTC’s Office of Disabilities.
In order for the College to best meet the needs of students with
special requirements, students with disabilities and learning
challenges are strongly encouraged to introduce themselves to
the SRC Director prior to their first quarter at MTC. The SRC will
help develop learning strategies and advocate on students’
behalf reasonable accommodations as they relate to physical,
mental, and/or emotional disabilities.
The Student Resource Center is open Monday through
Saturday, including most evenings. Services are free of charge
to all MTC students. See the Student Handbook for more
details about SRC-sponsored services.
MTC Changes to Course Placement
Effective Summer Quarter 2009 Update
• As course placement in all USO colleges and universities
becomes standardized, MTC will change its minimum
placement scores on the English and math COMPASS and ASSET
assessments to place you in the appropriate level of English and
college algebra courses. Also, American College Test (ACT) subscores, or equivalent SAT scores, in English and mathematics
will begin to be used for course placement.

Transfer Guarantees
In addition to using transfer agreements, MTC students can
also complete an individual course or several courses within an
academic major that are guaranteed to transfer to Ohio public
colleges and universities.
The Ohio Board of Regents (OBR) worked with colleges and
universities to establish policies that ensure students can begin
their college career at any state college or university, including
Marion Technical College, and transfer credits earned to other
state institutions without unnecessary barriers. This allows
students, parents, and advisors to develop viable educational
plans using all the resources of the public higher education
system – beginning at any point along the pathway from high
school through college.
Three (3) key stipulations of Ohio transfer policy mandates
that public colleges and universities:
• assure transfer of course credits and degrees without
unnecessary duplication
• use a universal course equivalency classification system to
eliminate inconsistent judgment in transfer credit
application
• admit students with Associate Degrees to state public
universities on an equally competitive basis with native
students for specific programs and with priority over outof-state Associate Degree graduates and out-of-state
Transfer Students
Blackboard Technology Takes Teaching to a New Level
Using the Internet as a teaching environment, faculty
members at Marion Technical College deliver part of or all of
their class content using an e-Learning course management
software called Blackboard. All registered MTC students can
access Blackboard through an Internet browser such as
Microsoft® Internet Explorer. The Blackboard portal provides
personal resources such as calendars, task lists, college e-mail
services, and education-specific web pages, as well as course
materials when provided by the instructor. Orientation
activities during the first class of the quarter are usually used to
introduce students to materials they will use in the class.
It is possible for students to complete 50 percent of a
bachelor’s degree at MTC depending upon their chosen
major. According to state policy, students can maximize the
transfer of college credit throughout all Ohio public
institutions using the following methods:
Transfer Assurance Guides (TAGs)
TAGs are groups of foundational and other courses that
represent commonly-accepted pathways to bachelor’s degrees,
including specific majors. TAG courses are guaranteed to
transfer and apply to degree/program requirements of each
major. Each of the 38 Ohio TAGs typically includes introductory
or core courses in a major, e.g., business or psychology, and
also recommended courses in the Ohio Transfer Module
(OTM), e.g., microeconomics or sociology. You may use the
TAG course Bulletin Board to explore various course transfer
scenarios by linking to:
www.regents.ohio.gov/transfer/tagcourses/index.php
TRANSFERRING TO UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES
Marion Technical College students have many opportunities
to explore upon graduation. Most seek direct entry into the job
market; however, more graduates continue their education
toward a bachelor’s degree directly after they graduate or after
starting their careers. Recent statistics show that between 20
and 25 percent of MTC graduates transfer to a four-year
institution within six months of graduation.
MTC encourages students who intend to transfer to plan
their academic courses carefully in consultation with MTC
advisors as well as with advisors at the university to which they
want to transfer.
The College participates in an annual area College Night and
hosts other special programs/workshops, providing easy access
to dozens of well-known colleges and universities, many of
which have offered MTC students guaranteed or highly
favorable credit transfer.
Career-Technical Assurance Guides (CTAGs)
CTAGs are courses students (both high school and adult) take at
Career-technical schools; these courses can count for college
credit providing the student meets the requirements listed in
the CTAG. MTC participates in CTAGs for Engineering,
Information Technology, Medical Assisting, Criminal Justice, and
Practical Nursing.
Transfer Agreements
MTC has entered into transfer agreements with other Ohio
colleges and universities. These agreements enable graduates
to enter the “transfer college” with junior status so they can, in
Ohio Transfer Module (OTM)
The Ohio Board of Regents (OBR), has developed a subset of
the complete set of a college’s or university’s general education
5
requirements known as the Ohio Transfer Module (OTM). The
OTM represents a body of knowledge and academic skills
common across Ohio colleges and universities in: 1) English
composition; 2) mathematics; 3) arts and humanities; 4) social
and behavioral sciences; and 5) natural and physical sciences.
Similar to the TAGs mentioned above, the OTM provides
students the opportunity to easily transfer course credits. Any
college’s OTM courses are guaranteed to transfer among Ohio
public institutions of higher education as a block of courses, or
on an individual course-by-course basis for students who do
not intend to complete the entire block. Therefore, students
can transfer credit for successful completion of only one OTM
course if desired.
See page 98-99 for more details on Ohio’s Transfer Module.
The overall goal of Ohio’s transfer policy is to allow students
to easily transfer credits between campuses for equivalent
courses and be guaranteed that the courses apply to degrees in
specific majors. Ohio needs more college educated citizens, and
these efforts are aimed to streamline the process, and avoid
duplication of effort and costs to students.
PROGRAM OPTIONS
Associate Degree
Associate Degrees, the preferred credential for many of the
fastest growing occupations, are awarded upon completion of
an established MTC two-year program.
MTC offers the Associate of Applied Business (A.A.B.) degree
in Business Technologies and Information Technologies. The
Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree is offered in
Engineering Technologies, Health Technologies, and Public
Services. (See inside back cover for list of programs and
majors.)
Residency requirement: the minimum number of credit
hours for all associate degree programs that must be earned
through regular MTC course enrollment is 32, of which 16 must
be technical course credits. All 32 credit hours must be directly
applicable to the chosen program curriculum.
Ohio Policy for Advanced Placement (AP) Credit
The University System of Ohio (USO) has initiated policies to
facilitate the ease of transition from high school to college as
well as between and among Ohio’s Public colleges and
universities.
Beginning in the Fall Quarter 2009:
1. Students obtaining an Advancement Placement exam
score of 3 or above will be awarded the aligned course(s)
and credit for the AP exam area(s) successfully
completed.
2. General Education courses and credits earned through AP
will be applied towards graduation and will satisfy a
general education requirement if the course(s) to which
the AP area(s) is equivalent fulfills a requirement.
3. If an equivalent course is not available for the AP exam
area completed, elective or area credit will be awarded in
the appropriate academic discipline and will be applied
towards graduation where such elective credit options
exist within the academic major.
4. Additional courses or credits may be available when a
score of 4 or 5 is obtained. Award of credit for higher
score values varies depending on the institution and
academic discipline.
5. In academic disciplines containing highly dependent
sequences (Mathematics Sciences, etc.) students are
strongly advised to confer with the college/university
advising staff to ensure they have the appropriate
foundation to be successful in advanced coursework
within the sequence.
Associate of Arts Degree
The Associate of Arts Degree (AA) is essentially the first two
years of a Bachelor of Arts Degree. The AA Degree is a two-year
Liberal Arts / General Education Degree with an emphasis in
English, Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities, Mathematics, and
Natural Sciences. Graduates of this program will have the
general education necessary to pursue Bachelor’s Degrees that
emphasizes non-science majors at most four-year colleges and
universities as juniors.
Associate of Science Degree
The Associate of Science (AS) is essentially the first two years
of a Bachelor of Science Degree. The AS Degree is a two-year
Liberal Arts / General Education Degree with an emphasis in
Mathematics and Natural Sciences. Graduates of this program
will have the general education necessary to pursue
Bachelor’s Degrees that emphasizes science majors at most
four-year colleges and universities as juniors.
Associate of Technical Study Degree
Also a two-year option, MTC’s Associate of Technical Study
(A.T.S.) degrees combine existing courses from a minimum of
two disciplines to create a unique individually-planned degree
that meets a more specialized employment objective.
Individuals interested in pursuing an A.T.S. degree work
closely with an academic advisor and must complete a separate
A.T.S. application to the College. Individuals have two options:
(1) combining portions of established programs to create a
hybrid curriculum; or, (2) individually selecting nearly all
courses required to qualify for a degree to create a truly unique
program.
A complete listing of credit awarded for an AP score of 3 or
above for all University System of Ohio Colleges and
Universities should soon be available at http://uso.edu/. MTC
credit awarded for AP exams completed successfully are
indicated on the next page. Elective credit may be awarded for
other AP exams completed with a score of 3 or above in
accordance with Ohio policy.
USELECT
Ohio colleges and universities use USELECT, an electronic
advising system that describes the transfer opportunities for
students through a Web-based portal. USELECT is an effective
and user-friendly tool that helps students transfer and apply
credits to degree requirements through better planning,
cohesive advising, and a one-stop clearinghouse of transfer and
academic pathway information.
Certificate Programs
Ranging from three to twelve months, MTC’s certificate
programs are designed with the advice of employers to provide
concise learning opportunities so students can enter the
workforce with a technical or professional skill in a compressed
6
Problem Solving and Decision Making
Recognize and solve problems through analysis, evaluation
and synthesis to make informed decisions
Interpersonal and Professional Behavior
Demonstrate good work habits, effective interpersonal and
teamwork skills, and a high level of professionalism
Information Technology
Use a computer to perform personal and professional tasks
period of time. (See inside back cover for list of certificate
programs.)
Certificate options often target regional employment needs
to prepare students competently for quick entry into the
workforce. Most, if not all, of the courses completed in a
certificate program apply to one or more associate degrees,
therefore students have a clear pathway for continued learning
and career advancement.
More complete information about each CGC is available in
the Student Handbook and at the College Web site,
www.mtc.edu. Through its public disclosure of all learning
outcomes, and an ongoing assessment of the extent to which
students learn them, Marion Technical College affirms that all
graduates will be characterized for their ability to competently
practice what they have learned.
Certification Credentials – IT, Health, etc.
Students can earn one or more certifications in a variety of
specialty areas at MTC. Certification documents to an employer
that a student has the knowledge, skills, and abilities in a
specific professional area. Certification is typically achieved by
successfully passing an exam, which may include a
demonstration of skills. Through its VUE™ and Prometric™
Testing Center, MTC offers an array of exams that lead to
certification for current students and working professionals.
The certification courses that MTC provides qualify a student
to sit for a corresponding certification exam (many mentioned
throughout this Catalog). In some career areas, certification
can be an expected or preferred qualification for initial hiring,
internal promotion, or pay increases, including many in the
Information Technologies (IT) area.
ASSESSMENT
What Students Are Expected To Learn and
How It Will Be Assessed
Student learning is the cornerstone of Marion Technical
College’s mission. To determine how well students learn what is
being taught, faculty develop and use a systematic process to
assess student academic achievement. This assessment takes
place throughout a student’s academic career. Assessment
results help guide faculty as they continuously improve
teaching, learning, courses, programs, and future assessment.
Results also help students and others learn about the
effectiveness of teaching and learning at MTC.
Assessment begins with a clear understanding of what
students are expected to learn. With the advisement of
employers, professional associations, and others, faculty have
defined two types of core learning goals for MTC students: 1)
Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs) which usually apply only to
students enrolled in a specific area of study; and, 2) College
Graduate Competencies (CGCs) which are common to all areas
of study and apply to all students. Together, SLOs and CGCs
form the complete set of core competencies that all graduates
are expected to learn.
The individual sub-skills defined in each CGC and SLO are
taught, reinforced, and/or periodically measured in various
courses throughout the curriculum. Each course in which a
College Graduate Competency is assessed in a primary way is
designated with a special D icon next to the course in this
Catalog. SLOs are listed for each degree program and major
next to the course displays in this Catalog. The five CGC areas
and statements of competence are:
Communications
Communicate and write effectively
Mathematics
Solve problems using mathematics

STUDENT CONNECTIONS
High School Early College Students
The Post-Secondary Enrollment Option (PSEO) Program and
other dual credit opportunities give high school students who
are academically capable of doing college-level work the
opportunity to take college classes while still in high school at
no or little cost. MTC courses are taught at many area high
schools during regular school hours, and/or students often
commute to campus to complete courses of interest. Contact
your school guidance office or MTC’s Admission Office for
details.
college, (2) creates a seamless path for earning an associate
degree without repeating learning, and (3) affords opportunities for continuing learning toward a bachelor’s degree.
CTP students have made a commitment to a pre-college plan
of study. CTP courses combine academic and hands-on
learning, and provide an opportunity for high school students to
earn college credit toward an MTC degree. (Other colleges also
accept credits earned through CTP.)
For more information, contact your high school guidance
counselor or go to the MTC Web site (www.mtc.edu) and click
on the College Tech Prep icon.
High School College Tech Prep
Since 1992, Marion Technical College has participated in a
partnership called College Tech Prep (CTP) with secondary
schools, business, and industry. CTP is an approach to
education that: (1) integrates the teaching and learning of
academic and technical skills of students in high school and
Adult Students
Franklin University
Through a unique partnership with Franklin University, MTC
is able to offer 16 distinct bachelor’s degree completion options
that reflect today’s hottest career tracks. Known as the
Community College Alliance, these programs offer students

Learning Enrichment Institute
The Learning Enrichment Institute (LEI) is an opportunity for
individuals 50 years of age and older to broaden their
experiences through a schedule of short-term, non-credit
courses that promote creativity, free thinking, and personal
growth and development.
LEI combines the educational resources of Marion Technical
College, The OSU at Marion, other community organizations,
and dozens of volunteers to offer two terms (fall and spring,
each lasting approximately five to six weeks) of programming
that meet the diverse needs and interest of 50+ adults.
LEI is a community service/outreach effort modeled after
more than 600 successful “Elderhostel” programs across the
country. LEI belongs to the official Elderhostel Institute
Network.
Course offerings and cost /registration information can be
found at www.mtc.edu or by calling (740) 725-4014.
complete flexibility in their education through a combination of
special MTC on-site classes and dynamic online courses hosted
by Franklin. Participants in the Alliance can complete a
bachelor’s degree in an online learning environment.
The Alliance is open to all MTC graduates and any individual
with an associate degree or educational equivalent.
Coursework will utilize processes such as Internet research,
chat rooms, news groups, online testing, and more.
Mount Vernon Nazarene University (MVNU)
Mount Vernon Nazarene University (MVNU) offers an
accredited well-recognized, high quality Bachelor of Business
Administration (BBA) program in a non-traditional manner
through its Adult and Graduate Studies Program. A bachelor’s
degree can be completed in about 22 months attending classes
on the MTC campus. With classes held just one night per week,
one subject at a time, you can earn your degree with a
manageable time commitment.
Sixty Plus Program
If you are an Ohio resident age sixty or older, you may enroll
in MTC courses on a space-available, non-credit, tuition-free
basis. (You will, however, purchase your own books and pay
laboratory fees, if applicable.)
See the Office of Admission for details.
BSN and MSN Programs
The Ohio Board of Nursing and The National League for
Nursing Accrediting Commission (NLNAC) require a minimum of
a master’s degree in nursing, or variations of the bachelor and
master’s degrees to teach. Our community is very fortunate to
have the ability to advance from an STNA (State Tested Nurse
Aide) to a Master’s Degree in Nursing on one campus. Marion
Technical College’s R.N. nursing program was the first among
the four technical colleges that share a regional campus with
The Ohio State University to be able to transfer credits.
Consequently, the Associate Degree Registered Nurse graduate
from MTC can now transfer to The Ohio State University at
Marion to complete the bachelor’s degree in nursing.
Students can earn their State-Tested Nurse Aide (STNA)
certification and Associate’s Degree in Nursing (R.N.) at Marion
Technical College, transfer to OSU Marion for their BSN
program, and then attend courses at MTC via distance learning
to complete their Master’s Degree (MSN) from Otterbein
College.
Marion’s Tri Rivers Career Center has a Licensed Practical
Nurse (LPN) program, which articulates smoothly with Marion
Technical College and enables LPN’s to complete their Associate
Degree in Nursing via the Transition Program. Of course, these
students may join the other MTC R.N. grads and transfer to
OSUM and Otterbein to complete the BSN and MSN degrees.
Marion Technical College is accredited by the Higher Learning
Commission, and the nursing program has been accredited by
the NLNAC since shortly after the program’s inception.
Accreditation enables students to transfer credits to other
colleges and universities and signifies the excellence in
education at MTC.
As a bonus, Marion Technical College’s nursing graduates
have been in the top 25% schools’ pass rate for the State Board
of Nursing Exam (NCLEX-RN) for the past 11 years. The Ohio
Board of Nursing reported in 2006 that Marion Technical
College was ranked number one in exam pass rate among all 51
associate and bachelor degree nursing programs in Ohio.
To find out more about this option, call 740-389-4636 and ask
to speak to an advisor.
Education after Retirement
Retirement is becoming the ideal time for earning a college
degree, according to national trends. People who dreamed of
going to college are now living the dream during retirement
dreams.
MTC has been proud to count numerous retirees among its
graduates– senior citizens who walk across the stage to the
applause of their children and grandchildren.

Buying and Selling Textbooks Online
Many college students are turning to the Internet to purchase
(and sell) textbooks. You may wish to compare vendors for
book selection, prices and shipping charges before making a
purchase.
Tips for buying textbooks online:
• Get the correct edition…returning can be a hassle as well
as costly.
• Know the International Standard Book Number (ISBN)…
this can be found on some websites by entering the
book title, author and edition or under the “My Books”
link, under “My Stuff” on the www.mtc.edu Web page.
• Compare shipping costs…some offer free shipping.
Buying from the same vendor may save on shipping.
• Processing and Shipping takes time…order early.
• Sometimes MTC may require other resources, such as
workbooks, access codes, CDs, etc. that may or may not
be packaged with online textbooks.
• You will need a credit card/bank card to pay online.

Part of MTC’s overall goals is to produce ‘‘lifelong learners.’’
This philosophy extends into all facets of individuals’ lives,
including the workplace. To accomplish this, the College relies
on the expertise and resources of its Center for Workforce
Development (CWD).
The CWD serves as a liaison between the College and its
corporate and individual workforce-related customers. CWD
personnel work closely with customers, identifying and applying
resources from educational, governmental, and private sector
sources to provide training and assessment services. These
services help employers build and maintain a world-class
workforce, keep pace with rapid technological change, and
meet the evolving challenges of a world economy.
Since 1985, the CWD has trained thousands of individuals in
Marion and surrounding counties to move into growing
occupational fields or to improve the workplace skills that
modern companies need to stay competitive. Customized
training has workshops, credit associate degree programs, noncredit courses, programs, and more. Instruction has been
provided both at MTC and on-site when it is more convenient
for the employer/employees. These training activities have
generated more than 43,000 enrollments.

COOPERATIVE EDUCATION
Marion Technical College believes that maximum benefit is
derived from integrating cooperative education (workplace)
experiences into academic programs. Securing co-op
employment that is related to the student’s academic program
is an ideal method for bringing classroom and lab experiences
‘‘to life.’’ Business Technologies programs at MTC include a coop experience.
The co-op Program was established based upon need for
graduates to have practical experience in the work
environment as identified through assessment of advisory
committees. These committees are comprised of area and
regional employers whose input helps shape MTC’s program
and course development.

Marion Technical College believes that maximum benefit is
derived from integrating cooperative education (workplace)
experiences into academic programs. Securing co-op
employment that is related to the student’s academic program
is an ideal method for bringing classroom and lab experiences
‘‘to life.’’ Information Technologies programs at MTC include a
co-op experience.
The co-op program was established based upon need for
graduates to have practical application experience in the work
environment as identified through assessment of advisory
committees. These committees are comprised of area and
regional employers whose input helps shape MTC’s program
and course development.

achievement of hardware and/or software skills. Certifications
are externally constructed tests – many with worldwide
standing – that are often used in initial hiring and in-house
promotion procedures. Many IT credentials must also be
periodically renewed through testing.
MTC offers courses to prepare students to take certain
certification exams. Listed below are blocks of courses
associated with various certification exams. Students
completing these courses will be awarded corresponding
college credit (which may be applied toward an associate
degree program) and an MTC IT certificate. MTC also operates
a testing center to facilitate completion of a variety of exams.

Mechanical Engineering Technicians help engineers design,
develop, test, and manufacture industrial machinery, consumer
products, and other equipment. They may assist in product
tests by, for example, setting up instrumentation for auto crash
tests. They may make sketches and rough layouts, record and
analyze data, make calculations and estimates, and report on
their findings. When planning production, mechanical
engineering technicians prepare layouts and drawings of the
assembly process and of manufactured parts. They estimate
labor costs, equipment life, and plant space. Some test and
inspect machines and equipment or work with engineers to
eliminate production problems.

Program
Health Information Technology
Quality information is essential to all aspects of today's
healthcare system. Health information management (HIM) is
the body of knowledge and practice that ensures the
availability of health information to facilitate real-time
healthcare delivery and critical health-related decision making
for multiple purposes across diverse organizations, settings,
and disciplines. HIM professionals play a critical role in
maintaining, collecting and analyzing the data that doctors,
nurses and other healthcare providers rely on to deliver quality
healthcare. They are experts in managing patient health
information and medical records, administering computer
information systems and coding the diagnosis and procedures
for healthcare services provided to patients. Health information
management (HIM) professionals work in 40 different settings
under 125 different job titles. They often serve in bridge roles,
connecting clinical, operational, and administrative functions.
If required, College foundation courses are available to help
you meet any specialized program admission requirements.
A complete listing of all requirements and
policies/procedures for the program is available in the Health
Information Technology Handbook.

Certification
The Health Information Technology Program (HIT) at Marion
Technical College has applied for accreditation by the American
Health Information Management Association’s Commission on
Accreditation for Health Informatics and Information
Management (CAHIIM), located at 233 N. Michigan Ave, 21st
Floor, Chicago, IL 60601-5800. CAHIIM’s telephone number is
(312) 233-1100. Once accreditation of the program has been
obtained, its graduates will be eligible to sit for the national
certification examination for the registered health information
technician credential administered by the American Health
Information Management Association. After successful
completion of this exam, the individual will be a Registered
Health Information Technician. All new HIT programs must
complete a standard process to be designated an accredited

Certification
The Occupational Therapy Assistant Program (OTA) at Marion Technical
College has applied for accreditation by the Accreditation Council for
Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE) of the American
Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA), located at 4720
Montgomery Lane, P.O. Box 31220, Bethesda, MD 20824-1220.
ACOTE’s telephone number c/o AOTA is (301) 652-AOTA. Once
accreditation of the program has been obtained, its graduates will be
eligible to sit for the national certification examination for the
occupational therapy assistant administered by the National Board
for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT). After successful
completion of this exam, the individual will be a Certified
Occupational Therapy Assistant (COTA). In addition, most states
require licensure in order to practice; however, state licenses are
usually based on the results of the NBCOT Certification Examination.
Note that a felony conviction may affect a graduate’s ability to sit for
the NBCOT certification examination or attain state licensure. All new
OTA programs must complete a standard process to be designated an
accredited program.
select and apply appropriate concepts of occupational therapy to
enhance client participation in a variety of contexts through the
adaptation of the environment, the modification of the task, or the
treatment of the person.
internalize the occupational therapy processes necessary to
provide effective intervention strategies and quality services to a
diverse population across the span of practice settings for an
occupational therapy assistant.
demonstrate the ability to use screening tools and to use
appropriate occupations, tasks and activities to promote and
restore health in a wide variety of service delivery systems in
classroom and fieldwork settings.
be able to articulate and apply occupational therapy principles and
intervention tools to achieve expected outcomes as they relate to
occupation.
internalize the distinct roles and responsibilities of the occupational
therapist and the occupational therapy assistant in the supervisory
process.
internalize the standards, ethics and professional behaviors of an
occupational therapy assistant upon completion of the program.
internalize the value of lifelong learning, professional development
and research to continuously improve the skill set of the individual
and best practices within the occupational therapy profession.
MTC’s program has been granted “Developing Program Status”. While
this designation is not a guarantee of accreditation, it does indicate
that the resource allocation and plan for development of the program
appear to demonstrate the ability to meet the ACOTE Standards for an
Educational Program for the Occupational Therapy Assistant if fully
implemented as planned. Now that Developing Program Status has
been achieved, MTC may admit students to the program and proceed
to the next step toward accreditation.
Admission - Limited Enrollment
To apply for acceptance into the Occupational Therapy Assistant
(OTA) Program, your application file should contain the following:
1. American College Test (ACT) composite score of 20 or higher.
2. Basic computer skills prior to admission to the program. This can
be satisfied through successful completion of the MTC Technology
Skills test.

Mission
The mission of MTC’s Arts and Sciences Department is to
provide a foundation for all academic programs. Arts and
Sciences curricula provides educational support and course
development in response to the identified needs of the
community, including those of business and industry.
Department members do their utmost to stimulate and
maintain an environment of respect and encouragement so
that optimum learning can occur.
General education courses are designed not only to give you
the necessary foundation, knowledge, and skills for completing
courses in a technical specialty, but also to prepare you to be an
active, interested, and productive member of the community.
Certain general education courses are required for associate
degree and certificate programs, while others may be taken as
electives or for personal enrichment. General education
courses are typically transferrable to other colleges and
universities. Descriptions of these courses can be found in this
Catalog.

Associate of Arts Degree
The purpose of these baccalaureate-oriented associate
degrees is to enable students: (1) to transfer to colleges and
universities and earn baccalaureate degrees; or, (2) to enable
students to terminate academic study after two years with
recognition of academic achievement by earning an associate
degree. This degree will provide students with the opportunity
to affordably complete their first two years of the
baccalaureate degree and transfer credit to public four- year
colleges and universities.
The Associate of Arts (AA) is essentially the first two years
towards a Bachelor of Arts degree. The AA degree is a two year
liberal arts/general education degree comprised of courses that
emphasize English, Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities,
Mathematics, and Natural Sciences. Graduates of this program
will have the general education necessary to pursue a
Bachelor’s degree at most four-year colleges and universities as
juniors.

Individuals who successfully complete the Transfer Module at
one institution will be considered to have met the Transfer
Module requirements of the receiving institution. Approved
Transfer Module courses, when taken individually, are also
guaranteed for transfer among public institutions on a courseby-course basis and are to be applied to the Transfer Module of
the receiving institution.
Critical Thinking
Students will have the skills to recognize and solve problems;
skills to analyze, evaluate, synthesize, and reflect; and the
ability to make decisions and demonstrate the knowledge of
how to change.
Computation
Students will have knowledge of calculator functions and
applications, the skills to interpret numerical data and solve
applied problems (program determines the level of
competence).
A Transfer Assurance Guide (TAG) course is unique in that it
has been matched to a set of learning outcomes (identified by
an OAN code) in a specific academic subject area. Approved
TAG courses carry the guarantee that the courses and their
credits will transfer and apply toward the major at any of Ohio’s
public institutions of higher education, provided they were
taken when the courses were equivalent.
Further Ohio transfer information may be obtained at
http://regents.ohio.gov/transfer/
College Foundations
Through its Arts and Sciences Department, MTC offers a variety
of courses specifically designed to enhance the skills of adults
re-entering the academic setting after an extended absence,
and to help prepare those who have not taken college
preparatory courses in high school or whose performance in
high school was inadequate to be successful at the college
level.
The College assesses readiness for college-level course work
through measures such as Basic Skills Assessment (COMPASS),
review of high school experiences, and academic advising
conferences. Students who appear to need services beyond
those provided by the College will be referred to the
appropriate schools, agencies, or other resources in the
communities served by the College.
Responsibilities of Students
Completing Transfer Module Courses or Using Transfer Services
In order to facilitate transfer with maximum applicability of
transfer credit, prospective transfer students should plan a
course of study that will meet the requirements of a degree
program at the receiving institution. Specifically, students
should identify a major and college to which they desire to
transfer before they begin scheduling MTC classes, or at the
latest, very early in their collegiate studies. For example,
students should determine if there are language requirements
or any special course requirements that must be met during the
freshmen or sophomore year. This will enable students to plan
and pursue a course of study that will articulate well with the
receiving institution’s major. Students are encouraged to seek
further information regarding transfer from both their advisor
and the college or university to which they plan to transfer.

Credit-By-Examination
Students may be permitted to progress to more advanced work
in a particular program if they can demonstrate college-level
competency. If you have qualifications from previous
education, job training, self-study, occupational, or other
experiences, you may be able to earn credit in certain courses
by successfully completing a proficiency examination.

Appeal Process for Transfer Credit to and from MTC:
Marion Technical College complies with Ohio Transfer and
Articulation Policy to accept transfer credit from new students
that eliminates the need to repeat courses already successfully
completed. While credit transfer among Ohio public colleges
and universities is guaranteed for many courses, other courses
not so guaranteed to transfer may be evaluated for transfer in
varying ways or not transferred at all. The steps below are
provided to guide students who may dispute the outcome of
their transcript evaluation when transferring credits TO Marion
Technical College, or from Marion Technical College to another
Ohio public institution.
1. Check the college’s published internal appeals process.
2. Student applies for admission.
3. The college evaluates the transcript of accepted student.
4. The college decides on the acceptability and applicability of
credit and sends a dated evaluation statement of transfer
credit to the student along with a notification of the 90-day
period for filing an appeal.
5. If the student accepts the judgment, the process ends.
6. The student challenges the judgment and appeals within the
college.
7. The college initiates its multi-level internal appeal process .
At each level, the college shall respond to the appeal within
30 days of the receipt of the appeal.
8. The college notifies the student of its judgment.
9. If the student disagrees with the last college decision, he/she
may notify the institution at which the credits were earned.
That institution may notify the Ohio Board of Regents, if in
its judgment, there is noncompliance with the Ohio
Articulation and Transfer Policy.
If you are transferring to MTC and wish to appeal the official
evaluation of your transfer credit, the appeal must be typed
and submitted within 90 days of the postmark/electronic or
other delivery of this communication, preferably through email,
to the appropriate academic department dean or director of
your program. Students undecided about a specific program
would appeal to the Dean, Arts and Sciences. For more
information, contact the Office of the Registrar.
If you are transferring from MTC and wish to appeal the official
evaluation of your transfer credit received from the college to
which you are transferring, you must follow the appeals process
of that institution. If you disagree with the judgment of that
college or university concerning your earned MTC credits after
you complete the appeals process, you may report your
dissatisfaction to Marion Technical College’s Office of Student
Records.

The AA and AS are pre-baccalaureate degrees designed to
transfer to Bachelor of Arts (BA) and Bachelor of Science (BS)
degrees offered at universities and colleges. Completion of the
AA or AS means that the student has completed all or nearly all
of the freshman and sophomore courses of a BA or BS degree,
or about one-half of the total courses required to graduation.
The university to which a student transfers may require certain
courses in some majors, therefore, MTC advisors will assist
students to align their MTC courses to match requirements at
the university of their choice.
