Third Phase of “Vaccine Pass”

Pursuant to the earlier announcement on the Third Phase of "Vaccine Pass", this serves as a reminder that, effective from 31 May 2022 (Tuesday), to gain access to VTC campuses, all full-time and part-time students of THEi, SHAPE, IVE, HKDI, HTI, CCI, ICI, MSTI and SBI must scan the “LeaveHomeSafe” mobile app and present the vaccination records of

 

• at least three doses of COVID-19 vaccine; or
• at least two doses of COVID-19 vaccine, if within 6 months from the second dose.

 

Recovered students please refer to the FAQs for details of the relevant vaccination requirements and using recovery record QR code for campus entry.  Students who are medically unfit for COVID-19 vaccination as supported by a valid medical exemption certificate can be exempted from the vaccination requirement.

 

Use of “Vaccination Record System for Students” for Campus Entry

The VTC has developed a “Vaccination Record System for Students” (VRSS) to facilitate students under the “Vaccine Pass” arrangement to gain access to campuses.  We will soon notify relevant students to upload their vaccination records or required documents to the VRSS.  More details will be announced in due course.

 

The health and safety of our students and staff are always of utmost importance to the VTC.  We will continue to closely monitor the epidemic development as well as the Government’s latest measures and inform students of the updated arrangements in due course.   

 

Please keep checking your email and MyPortal “COVID-19 Corner” for the latest updates.  We again strongly urge all eligible students to receive the required dose of vaccine timely for enhanced protection.

Headquarters (Academic Services)

Over the past weeks, the Covid-19 epidemic has turned very severe with the  number of confirmed cases surging  record high. In view of the latest situation, teaching and learning through online or other non-face-to-face modes will continue for the remainder of Semester 2.  Subject to the pandemic situation and only when circumstances so allow, the essential practical/laboratory classes in face-to-face mode could be resumed in phases on VTC campuses after the Easter holidays. 

Further to the notice on the assessment and examination arrangements for Semester 2 issued on 15 Feb 2022, if on-campus assessments / examinations are necessary for individual modules or for attaining professional recognition, they will be conducted with stringent precautionary measures in place.

Students are strongly advised to stay at home for online classes to minimize the risk of infection and better protect yourselves and your family members. For the updated class/assessment arrangements, you should continue to pay close attention to the latest information from the institutes/colleges or contact your teachers/class tutors.

Only students meeting the Vaccine Pass requirements (except those who are exempted with valid medical proof) will be allowed to enter VTC campuses to attend face-to-face classes (including practical and laboratory classes) and on-campus assessments/examinations.  These requirements will be stepped up by phases to align with the latest Government directives/regulations. All full-time and part-time VTC students should get vaccinated, including taking the second and third doses of COVID-19 vaccine (where appropriate), as early as possible for enhanced protection and to facilitate their access to campuses.
