A Virtual Tour of the 9/11 Memorial & Museum NEW!

Registering for a remote instructor class means the student will attend in a classroom at MTP, but the instructor(s) teach(es) from a remote location. These classes are scheduled for a specific date and time. The instructor's presentation is displayed for students to see and hear in the classroom. Questions to and interaction with the remote instructor is usually available.

As we approach the 25th anniversary of 9/11, take in panoramic views of the 9/11 Memorial Museum in this 60-minute interactive virtual tour led by 9/11 Memorial & Museum staff. Tours offer a deeper understanding of 9/11, the continuing significance of the attacks, and the stories and artifacts within this globally renowned institution. The tour will be offered via Zoom, with time for questions throughout.
