Overview

This program is intended for internationally educated medical laboratory technologists residing in Canada who have completed the prior learning assessment (PLA) through the Canadian Society of Medical Laboratory Science (CSMLS) and are seeking to fill any existing learning gaps and prepare to write the CSMLS General MLT certification exam.

WHAT TO EXPECT

The theory component of the program will be delivered online asynchronously (without formal lectures) with an IEMLT program facilitator hosting regularly scheduled meetings online for student check-ins and to ensure student progress. Scheduled laboratory sessions will be held in person at the Anderson College North York campus and students are required to attend these for program completion.
