Midwifery Program

of the Medical Training Institute of America

To develop in students a desire to glorify God through their midwifery training and ministry
To train students to see midwifery and women’s health care from God’s perspective
To equip students to become skilled in analytical and persuasive communication, both written and oral
To give students a Biblical understanding of each of the seven organ systems of the human body
To offer three years of academic training involving women’s health and newborn/child care that will result in an academic certificate
To offer a Mastery of Midwifery certificate to students who meet rigorous practical requirements (including attendance at 75 births in various care-giver capacities)

MTIA Midwifery Program offers training for the student desiring a ministry as a direct-entry midwife (DEM).*
Students who complete the Mastery of Midwifery requirements are eligible to sit for the NARM (National Association of Registered Midwives) exam to obtain the title of Certified Professional Midwife (CPM).**
MTIA’s Midwifery Program is also approved by the Texas Department of Health Professional Licensing Division Midwifery Board, which provides additional validation for interested students.

*The scope of practice is confined to home and birth centers, depending on the regulations of each state.

**A CPM should be differentiated from a CNM (one who has an RN degree in addition to midwifery training).
