Orientation and enrolment

Orientation is where it all starts! Meet new friends, enrol for your units, and ensure you are ready to go when classes begin.

Orientation and Enrolment

Orientation is day one of your ECC journey. You can expect a fun-filled and relaxed event where you will meet new students and ECC staff, and get all the information and assistance you need to enrol and get started with your studies. You’ll also hear about the support services available to you, like academic support, student wellbeing and student services.

Before you attend Orientation Day, we will send you an online Orientation Induction, which is compulsory for all new students. By attending Orientation, you are ensuring that you are enrolled and organised before you officially start your classes.
