Welcome Modules of Midwifery Intensive (MOMI)
The MOMI course is a 3 month midwifery intensive followed by an international internship and practicum. This course is designed specifically to train those who will work in rural regions around the world and in low resource settings. The days are full and classes are held from 8 am-12 pm and again in the evening following dinner from 6 pm-8 pm. (Class time can vary daily.)
Students will work in both the clinic and birth room under supervision. Clinic days are long days, but filled with so much opportunity to practice skills learned in class. Written assignments also accompany classroom lecture and clinical hours.
Class is offered in English and French.
