LASBERY COLLEGE OF HEALTH TECHNOLOGY OGIDI, ANAMBRA STATE

Lasbery College of Health Technology is a private, Anglican-founded college in Ogidi, Idemili North, Anambra State, owned and run through the Diocese on the Niger and its Iyi-Enu Mission Hospital. It is named after Rt Rev Bertram Lasbery, who served as Bishop on the Niger for 23 years from 1922. The college's stated philosophy is to provide qualitative education with godliness for skilful, professional and globally competitive health graduates who help resolve societal health care concerns.

The college is organised into departments that train mid-level health professionals: Medical Laboratory Technology, Health Information Management, Community Health Technology, Dental Health Science (dental therapy and dental surgery technician training), Pharmacy Technicians and Environmental Health Technology. A School of Public Health is planned. Programmes are offered at National Diploma (ND) level, with Health Information Management also running Higher National Diploma (HND) after receiving HND accreditation in December 2021.

Academic leadership includes an Acting Provost (Mrs. Kosisochukwu Amamgbo), an Acting Registrar, a Dean of Academics, a Bursar, an Admission Officer and a head of department for each programme. The college operates a counselling and guidance support unit with an online support team, and offers language courses in Chinese, French and Igbo, smart classrooms with smart boards and internet access, and a sports programme including football, basketball, athletics and martial arts.

The college's e-library gives students access to e-books and e-journals for each department through password-based, IP-based and open-access databases such as Research4Life (HINARI, AGORA, OARE, ARDI, GOALI), EBSCOhost, JSTOR, ScienceDirect, DOAJ and PubMed Central.

Regulatory approvals come from the professional councils for each programme and from the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE), which visited on 29 June 2024 and approved Dental Therapy, Health Information Management, Community Health Technology and Environmental Health Technology.
