School is back in session!

Happy February everyone! We have resumed classes, both online and partial on-campus, but we continue to be vigilant with our fight against the pandemic. Healthcare workers amongst our staff & faculty are nearing completion of their 2nd dose of the vaccine. The rest of us are looking forward to our place in line for the first dose. We continue to hold mandatory testing for all students and staff. Maintain social distancing, reduced class sizes, mandatory PPE, and other guidelines to maintain a safe learning environment as possible. Have a great day to all and please stay safe!

This year instead of wishing for things we don't have, we are especially thankful all we do have. Happy Holidays to all!

On this Thanksgiving Day, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude and admiration to the frontline healthcare workers and first responders who have and continue to sacrifice so much during this pandemic. Especially to those who are working today and unable to be with family, thank you

Happy Friday everyone! Special thanks for our many Phlebotomist out there.

With the unfortunate pandemic situation we are all in there has been a surge of interest in our MLT training program. MLTs are Medical Laboratory Technicians who work with laboratory testing and handle/collect specimens for testing. The recent pandemic has increased awareness for testing activities and increased demand for jobs in laboratories around the world. RCI is one of the few institutes in California approved by the California Department of Public Health - Laborato...ry Field Services division. Graduates of our course are allowed to sit for the national MLT examination with ASCP and/or AAB towards your California MLT state license. There are some prerequisites for this course which you can learn more about here. https://www.rci.edu/courses/medical-laboratory-technician/

We're testing today and every Thursday. Please come get tested.

Covid-19 testing every Thursday. In partnership with the City of El Monte, we are providing testing every Thursday. Visit the city website to sign up. @myelmonte #gettested #fightcovid19 @ El Monte Community Center 3130 Tyler Ave. El Monte, Ca. 91731
