IKIRUN COLLEGE OF HEALTH TECHNOLOGY ANNOUNCES ORIENTATION PROGRAMMES FOR NEWLY ADMITTED STUDENTS

The Management of Ikirun College of Health Technology (ICHT), Osun State, has formally ratified the schedule for its General Orientation Programme for newly admitted students of the 2025/2026 Academic Session. This foundational event is a strategic component of the college’s onboarding process, designed to transition “Freshmen” into disciplined healthcare professionals-in-training.

As the health sector requires a high degree of ethical conduct and technical precision, this orientation serves as the primary platform for internalizing the institutional policies, academic standards, and professional expectations that will govern the students’ stay at the college.

CORE OBJECTIVES OF THE ORIENTATION PROGRAMME

The 2026 orientation is structured to go beyond a mere welcome address. The sessions are curated to provide a holistic introduction to the “ICHT Way,” focusing on several key pillars:

• Institutional Familiarization: Introducing students to the campus layout, state-of-the-art laboratory facilities, and administrative hubs.

• Policy & Ethics: A comprehensive briefing on the college’s code of conduct, disciplinary measures, and the ethical requirements of the health technology profession.

• Academic Guidance: Detailed instructions on course registration procedures, credit load management, and the grading systems of the various professional boards.

• Administrative Interface: An opportunity for students to identify and interact with key administrative personnel, including the Registrar, Deans, and HODs.
