Important announcement about Covid-19
As a society we are living an absolutely exceptional situation. CETT follows its commitment to its students and professionals as well as to the society, and aims at full transparency in the application of our Code of ethics. Therefore, we inform you that so far a member of the CETT community has been diagnosed with Covid- 19. That person is at hospital, in a stable condition, and will hopefully recover soon. To date, no one else from CETT has been diagnosed with Covid-19 to the best of our knowledge.

Given the global situation, new cases are likely to emerge in the coming weeks, and we encourage the entire CETT community to follow the directions from the authorities and to inform us if anyone is diagnosed with Covid-19.

In accordance with CETT's contingency plan, which was implemented on March 13, virtual education will be maintained and all procedures will be carried out online to avoid spreading the virus and to guarantee the maximum security of all the community. Classes will be carried out remotely, without the attendance of students nor teachers.

The rest of staff will also work remotely for the time being. Only in exceptional, justified cases where this is not possible, attendance at CETT will be allowed, following the established protocols and security measures. The school building will be accessed from the hotel.

We urge everyone to strictly follow the measures set by the health authorities, with maximum involvement and collaboration so as to prevent the spread of the virus. It is your personal responsibility to follow the recommendations from the authorities to prevent such spread. We will timely inform you depending on how the implementation of the measures decreed by the Government evolves. We remind you that we have opened an email account (consellsalut@cett.cat) to answer questions or concerns regarding the COVID-19 virus.

Thank you for your cooperation. We are convinced that together we will be able to overcome these difficult times. Now, more than ever #JoEmQuedoACasa #WeAreCETT
