Milwaukee, WI - On Thursday, Dr. Vicki J. Martin, the President of the Milwaukee Area Technical College ( MATC) announced that all employees will be required to post their vaccination status on the secure Viewpoint system by Sunday, October 31st.

The secure Viewpoint system is expected to be setup and running by September 27th, according to Martin.

Martin also says that students will be encouraged to get vaccinated as well.

"Moving forward, the college anticipates requiring regular COVID-19 testing for unvaccinated individuals. And while we are not currently requiring the vaccine for employees, MATC anticipates pursuing this option if fewer than 80% of employees are vaccinated by October 31st. A vaccination requirement would include accommodations for approved medical and religious reasons," Martin stated in the announcement.
