Safety Procedures
To help reduce the risks related to COVID-19, the Learning Center has implemented a number of new safety practices:
- Our tutoring rooms have been rearranged to ensure social distancing. Within the rooms, we have spaced seats three feet apart.
- We are cleaning and sanitizing surfaces routinely and encouraging students to wipe down their work areas before and after they use them. Hand sanitizer as well as cleaning supplies are available for students to use.
- Tutors and students will be required to follow the RCTC campus face covering requirements.
