Required Healthcare Program Pre-Orientation Checklist
Attending this mandatory pre-orientation session is your first official step into your healthcare training. Designed as an informational launchpad, this session walks you through core curriculum expectations, mandatory enrollment requirements, and clinical compliance protocols before classes begin.

Why Attendance Is Required
Healthcare programs carry strict regulatory, academic, and clinical compliance requirements. This orientation gives you a complete, transparent look at the commitment involved before official coursework begins.
  • No-Penalty Withdrawal: If you decide the schedule, clinical demands, or program requirements aren't the right fit for you right now, you can drop the course prior to the official start date without any financial or academic penalty.
  • Compliance Overview: You will learn about the mandatory background check and drug screening procedures required for the program, including timeline expectations, costs, and policy details. Note: You will not be signing up or completing any screenings during this session; this is strictly an informational overview so you know what is entailed.
  • Program Alignment: Ensure your personal schedule, transportation, and career goals line up with the clinical and classroom requirements.
