New Student Orientation sessions
This optional session is for students who identify as mature learners and who may have been out of the school setting for a period of time. Advance registration is required.
As an international student, you are required to attend a special orientation and welcome on Thursday, January 3, 2019 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Please check your Lethbridge College email to confirm your attendance. If you are unable to attend this orientation you must contact the Manager of International Services, Catherine Wilde to make other arrangements.
Here are a few tips to help you prepare for your college experience as an online learner:
- It’s very important to review the new student orientation resource created exclusively for online learners. This information is designed to help you prepare for your online learning experience and will take approximately 60 minutes to review. Review New Student Orientation for online learners here.
- Once you have full access to Canvas, your Learning Management System, we encourage you to review additional resources in Your Digital Pitstop.
