ADDITIONAL COPIES OF CERTIFICATES AND TRANSCRIPTS

The student is given a Certificate of Completion and official transcript when training is successfully completed. Additional copies of Certificates are available for $30 each. Additional copies of transcripts are available for $5.  If the student was enrolled prior to 2003, the student will be required to pay for a records search, below, unless the student can provide an old transcript or Certificate for verification of completion.

 

RECORDS SEARCH

Former students of the MMTTC may request a records search for $30.  The records search is required to determine whether or not the student completed the program.  In the case of a student who didn’t complete the program, this fee covers the cost of research and assessment to determine what courses and materials need to be submitted in order to complete the training and receive Certification.  In some instances, a record search may reveal that a student is ineligible to complete the training due to poor attendance or due to lack of required grades or materials.  If the records search reveals that the student did successfully complete the program, a transcript and Certification will be issued for no additional fee. 

 

If the former student can provide proof of completion of the program by way of an old transcript or old Certificate, the records search is not required.

Alumni of the MMTTC may purchase replacement Certificates for $30, transcripts for $5.

 

LATE MATERIALS POLICY

Materials are required to be submitted on time. If a student has taken a course but neglected to turn in the required materials during the course, they will be allowed to turn in the materials within one calendar year of their enrollment in that course.

 

After one calendar year, if they want to turn in materials, they will need to pay an Album Review Fee of $50 per album, as well as a Material Review fee of $50 per course, so the MMTTC may contract with a Reader/Reviewer to properly grade and assess the materials required for the course.
