The National Diploma (ND) in Community Health Technology equips students with the knowledge, practical skills, and professional character required to become competent Community Health Practitioners. Based on the principles of primary healthcare, the programme covers health promotion, disease prevention, maternal and child health, environmental sanitation, community diagnosis, and healthcare management. Classroom instruction, laboratory practicals, clinical training, and community health postings build hands-on experience, compassion, integrity, and excellence.

Training develops expertise in community mobilisation, health-needs assessment, disease surveillance, immunisation, family planning, health education, clinical procedures, and health-data management, alongside leadership, communication, ethics, and entrepreneurship.
