Our Mission Statement
The mission of the Medical Transport Leadership Institute (MTLI) is to enhance leadership and management of medical transportation services through formal education programs stressing management theory and its direct practical application.

The Institute
The Institute provides continuing education and certification for individuals currently managing medical transportation services, those seeking management positions, and others with direct and indirect involvement who desire greater understanding of this dynamic profession. 

Students gain expertise and practical skills through formal didactic and participatory sessions designed to instill creative thinking and decision-making. Participants also obtain valuable insight into real life challenges by networking with industry leaders. The Institute operates with a rigorous approach to competency-based education, utilizing formal classroom hours, mandatory student participation, written testing, oral presentations and a code of professional conduct.
