ITLS Orientation

Every semester ITLS invites its new students to attend a half day orientation. The orientation provides valuable guidance on what new students can expect at ITLS and helps to ensure that their studies here are both enjoyable and successful. It is also a great opportunity for new students to meet ITLS staff and their fellow students. The orientation program includes tips on preparing assignments and using the web as a research tool, as well as introductions to some of the units of study on offer at ITLS. A free lunch is provided.
