The MTU Flex Portal is where you will find forms related to ensuring the health and safety of our community as we transition back to campus for the fall semester. The portal currently contains the COVID-19 Daily Symptom Monitoring Form and the Report a COVID-19 Test Form. More forms will be added as we continue to implement our return-to-campus plan.
During Step Two, the MTU Flex Portal is accessible to all University employees. Employees who are able to perform their work remotely are encouraged to continue to do so. However, with supervisor approval, all employees are able to return to campus, as long as they:
- comply with their supervisor's instructions;
- complete COVID-19 training; and
- complete daily symptom monitoring.
Daily Symptom Monitoring Form
All individuals who return to campus are required to self-monitor for symptoms using the COVID-19 Daily Symptom Monitoring Form. You must submit the form each day before coming to campus. HuskyCard tap access to campus buildings will reset at midnight each night. Completing the form each morning will turn on your HuskyCard’s access. Individuals who do not have access to a computer or smartphone prior to coming to campus should call Public Safety and Police Services at 906-487-2216 and dispatch will assist in submitting the form on their behalf.
According to the CDC, people with COVID-19 have had a wide range of symptoms reported – ranging from mild symptoms to severe illness. People with the symptoms listed below may have COVID-19. Persons are not permitted on campus if in the last 24 hours they experienced any of the following symptoms for a reason not attributable to a known condition other than COVID-19:
- fever (100.4°F or higher) or chills
- cough
- shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
- fatigue
- muscle or body aches
- Headache
- New loss of taste or smell
- sore throat
- congestion or runny nose
- nausea or vomiting
- diarrhea
Employees and students who meet this criteria will be asked to obtain a COVID-19 test or contact their medical provider for advice. MTU follows CDC guidance regarding when it is safe to return to campus.

Report a COVID-19 Test Form
If you have received a COVID-19 test, regardless of a positive or negative result, you are expected to inform the University of the date of the test, the result of the test, date of when symptoms were first experienced, and last date on campus using the Report a COVID-19 Test Form.
Employee Training
Employee training on COVID-19 prevention in the workplace has been assigned to all employees, and an email with a link to the training was sent out. If you did not receive the training link, email mtuflex@mtu.edu. If you completed the training before Step Two, you do not need to complete it again. Additional training may be required by some disciplines or departments (e.g., research laboratories).
Deadlines
Employees returning to campus before June 22 must complete the training on or before June 22. Employees returning to campus after June 22 must complete the training within seven days of returning. Even if you do not expect to return to campus until fall, we ask that you complete the training by the end of the summer.
