Education Plan
At MTW, you're expected to have an education plan: a set of expectations for school that will help you further your goals. We want to make sure we have the right information to create an education plan that works for you.
Step #1: know what an ed plan is
If you're working at MTW, you have two jobs: your YOU job and your business job. Part of your YOU job happens outside the building, as you follow an education plan.

Step #2: know yourself as a learner
At MTW, we consider a few different things before creating your education plan:
Your Learning Style
The way everyone learns is valid; once we identify how we best take in information, we can know how to advocate for your needs in education.
Your Educational History
Logistics like your last school, last completed grade, and favorite subjects, help us understand what pathways to connect you to.
