RRC joins fight against COVID-19: New training launched to increase testing capacity in Manitoba

Red River College, in partnership with the Province of Manitoba, is proud to announce the creation of a new micro-credential course that will provide essential training to help increase COVID-19 testing capacity for Manitoba Public Health. The course, which takes five hours to complete, is designed to train a number of health-care workers and students studying for careers in health care to safely conduct a nasal swab to collect samples to test for the virus. It will be offered through RRC’s School of Continuing Education and will be a blended delivery model, which will include essential theory offered through online delivery and a hands-on training component.
