Here are the top five most important things you need to know about Orientation!
Virtual Orientation
We hope you’re as excited for your first day as we are! To help you prepare, we have organized a virtual Orientation filled with exciting and important information to get you started on the road to success. Your Orientation will also include an Academic Orientation which will give you the chance to hear from your program coordinator and get specific program information before your regular classes start. You will receive an email three weeks prior to your start date with your program Orientation video! We encourage you to review before your virtual Orientation components before you begin your studies. After completing all the modules, you will have the opportunity to receive a digital Certificate of Completion!
