Staying COVID-safe at CIT (Update March 2022)

COVID-19 Update: Teaching and Learning at CIT in 2022

Mandatory mask requirements have eased in the ACT. However, CIT remains a mask-friendly campus, and you can continue to wear a mask if you choose to. You are still required to follow the ACT Health Guidelines while visiting campus or attending face-to-face classes. Please monitor for symptoms and do not attend campus if you are not feeling well. The CIT COVID Induction is updated regularly and accessible for students through eLearn. Visit the ACT Government COVID website for further information.

Face-to-face teaching and learning has returned where required across CIT campuses. Please continue to monitor your emails and eLearn for information regarding the delivery method of your classes, and check with your teacher if you are unsure. CIT will continue to follow the public health advice regarding COVID-19.

QR codes are still available on posters across CIT campuses. However, checking in on CIT campuses is no longer mandatory.

Please contact CITcovidenquiry@cit.edu.au if you have any questions or concerns about CIT's COVID-19 response.
