HCT is concerned that all individuals that students meet are properly authorized to
enter the campus. To ensure proper security for our students, security personnel
are stationed at each gate to allow those who are authorized to enter.
The Security staff at the college entrances are appointed by the Director of the
Colleges’ and have the right to stop anyone from entering the college without
proper authorization. The security check is also required to prevent female
students from leaving the college without proper permission. Students and
guardians must show proper respect for the security staff. Any violation of these
procedures may subject the student to suspension, probation or dismissal from
the college. Security personnel have the right to carry out random checks on
student and/or staff vehicles.
Students must seek management permission before inviting any visitors to
college.
Safety and Evacuation
A safety plan exists to ensure that students and staff know the procedures
to follow in the event of an emergency. This plan is available in the Learning
Resource Center. A team of staff members have been trained in emergency
procedures and will take charge in an emergency.
Students must be familiar with the procedures for evacuation. Procedures along
with maps showing the location of the designated safety zones are located at
every exit. If the fire alarm sounds:
➲➲Do not attempt to put out a fire. Follow your instructor out of the building or
proceed quickly to the nearest exit.
➲➲Assemble at the nearest designated safety zone. Remain there until you hear
the fire wardens give the “all clear”.
➲➲Do not stand close to the building.
➲➲Follow any instructions given to you by an instructor.
➲➲Once the “all clear” is given, walk back to your classroom.
We wish you all a safe, successful, and enriching year!
