Does Tech Elevator require COVID-19 vaccinations?

In alignment with county requirements and local public health recommendations, some Tech Elevator campuses require in-person students to be up-to-date with their COVID-19 vaccinations, as defined by the CDC. Tech Elevator also reserves the right to amend its policies at any time in response to changing public health and safety concerns—up to and including shifting its in-person instruction to Live Remote learning.

We have chosen to require vaccines to ensure the safest possible classroom experience, following the CDC and state regulatory guidelines, without inconveniencing students and Tech Elevator staff. Knowing that all students in a Tech Elevator campus are up-to-date on their COVID-19 vaccinations minimizes the risk of exposure and spread of the COVID-19 virus and reduces potential disruption during the cohort due to CDC quarantine and isolation requirements.

Students will demonstrate that they meet this requirement prior to picking up their laptops by showing proof of their vaccination, such as vaccination card(s).

For students who are unable or do not wish to receive the vaccine or those who feel more comfortable learning remotely, Tech Elevator offers our National Live Remote program starting the same day as in-person classes.
