Description
The Educational Programs in Collaboration (EPiC) Consortium is a collaboration between Michigan Colleges Online (MCO), Michigan Community College Association (MCCA) and 10 Michigan community colleges. EPiC allows community college partners to continue offering high-cost, low-enrollment programs by cost-sharing. Students take didactic coursework online and do their clinical work regionally. The programs that are currently running are: MRI tech associate degree, CT tech certificate and EEG tech associate degree.
Michigan Health Council does not administer all of the programs in this database. Please see the "organizations involved" above to learn who you should contact for more information.
