HIM ORIENTATION

One of the strongest contributors to student success is preparation. The UC HIM Orientation has been tailor-made for new HIM online students. Prior to starting your first academic course in the program, as a new student you will complete the Orientation course. This is an opportunity to learn about Blackboard (the course management system), determine the expectations of your faculty, and understand how to find and submit materials online. After successful completion of the HIM Orientation, you will be ready to focus on course content instead of having to worry about navigating new systems.

  • "I am very thankful I had the opportunity to benefit from the HIM Orientation process prior to starting my official course work. It relieved all my concerns and answered all my questions." – Cathy Carney
  • "I found the Orientation valuable and learned so much. For a first-time online student the Orientation eased the anxiety I had about taking online courses." – Dorothy Rodgers
  • "I thought the Orientation process was very helpful, and I was ready for class when the quarter started. I would have been more nervous about the classes without taking the Orientation course. The course and the instructors were very helpful." – Kim Hildenbrand
  • "I loved UC’s on-line HIM Orientation. It is just like the courses you will be taking throughout the program. The instructors are helpful and informative. Whenever you need help, they are an email away and will reply in a timely manner. I tell all of my friends that I am going to college at UC." – Christina Richardson
