CANADAHALIFAX news Nova Scotia to offer online learning for medical lab technologists by admin 7 أبريل، 2023 written by admin 7 أبريل، 2023 39 CITYnews halifax \By Dan Ahlstrand This fall, students in Nova Scotia that want to become Medical Lab techs can do so online. The province is partnering with the Toronto-based Michener Institute of Education at University Health Network to create up to 40 spots in the program this September. This new, three-year program is in addition to the 40 training seats offered through Nova Scotia Community College. “Medical laboratory technology is a rewarding career that is in high demand right now,” said Brian Wong, Minister of Advanced Education. “This learning model will allow students to learn online and practise in person at Nova Scotia Health facilities throughout the province so we can meet critical labour needs and train the professionals we need to provide Nova Scotians with access to better and faster care.” “We’ve made a promise to all Nova Scotians to improve healthcare, and we are committed to identifying innovative solutions that will train more students to fill vacancies in critical healthcare jobs, like medical laboratory technologists. This collaboration will provide an opportunity to bring healthcare professionals from around the world to our province and provide the best possible care for our patients,” said Nova Scotia Health President and CEO Karen Oldfield. People participating in the new program must sign a return of service agreement for a position with Nova Scotia Health. The province has yet to determine the final details on how long they would have to agree to stay in Nova Scotia after graduation. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post Lower Sackville man arrested following hate-motivated incident, Mounties say next post ‘We’ve got to protect our sick people’: advocate calls for job protection in cases of critical illness You may also like جولي تجتمع بقادة صناعة الصلب والنقابات، لكنها لم... 5 يونيو، 2025 كيبيك: توجه لخفض عدد المهاجرين الدائمين إلى 25... 5 يونيو، 2025 Search group warns against fake fundraisers exploiting two... 5 يونيو، 2025 Scientists seek to study eDNA to identify how... 5 يونيو، 2025 Rise in number of great whites in N.S.... 5 يونيو، 2025 What happened to the Sullivan children in Nova... 5 يونيو، 2025 Nova Scotia removes trade barriers with five provinces... 5 يونيو، 2025 بنك كندا يُبقي معدل الفائدة الأساسي عند 2,75% 4 يونيو، 2025 ساسكاتشِوان: حرائق الغابات تجبر 15 ألفاً على المغادرة... 4 يونيو، 2025 Committee to discuss NS Power breach that allowed... 4 يونيو، 2025
