Orientation
At Bedford College, we understand the importance of our orientation process in ensuring that our students are well-informed about our training programs, policies, and procedures.
Our orientation program is designed to help students understand their rights and responsibilities, as well as the support services available to them.
Domestic students will undergo the Orientation program online while international students will attend a face-to-face Orientation program on campus prior to the start of classes. Bedford staff will warmly welcome you, answer any questions you may have and provide you with all the necessary information.
We are committed to ensuring that your orientation experience at Bedford College is informative, engaging, and sets you up for success in your studies.
