Offering Traditional Medication Administration Training(MAT) & Independent Study (IS) Course
If you don’t have enough time to get away from your program to take the MAT course, and you have internet access and an e-mail address, then the MAT Independent Study (IS) course is for you!
The MAT Independent Study course, developed based on the original MAT course, is comprised of two parts. The first part is a self-paced, on-line review of the MAT course content using MAT course handouts, video segments and independent exercises. The second part consists of hands-on practice time and testing with an approved MAT Trainer.
