About the College

Learn more about who we are, our purpose, and the values that guide our work.

Who we are

International College of Infection Control Professionals Inc. is an education and training organization focused on infection prevention and control (IPAC) learning for individuals and organizations that want practical, current, and high‑quality instruction.

Our work is grounded in professionalism, evidence‑informed practice, and a deep respect for the responsibility carried by infection control practitioners—because in this field, quality education isn’t just “nice to have,” it is connected to real‑world safety.

Mission

To provide accessible, high‑quality education and professional development in infection prevention and control that supports safer workplaces, safer care environments, and stronger public health readiness.


Vision

To be a trusted, globally recognized learning hub that helps develop competent infection control professionals and promotes a culture of safety, accountability, and continuous improvement.


Values

Safety first
We prioritize learning that supports safer systems and reduces preventable harm.
Integrity and ethics
We expect honesty in learning, assessment, and professional conduct.
Evidence‑informed practice
We value current guidance, critical thinking, and practical application.
Respect and professionalism
We foster a learning environment that is inclusive, respectful, and supportive.
Accessibility and inclusion
We work to reduce barriers to learning and provide reasonable accommodations.
Continuous improvement
We review feedback, outcomes, and quality indicators to improve our programs.

What we do

Our programs include vocational and non‑vocational training, professional development courses, and specialized IPAC learning experiences.
Because program requirements can differ, we maintain clear program pages that outline:
  • Admission requirements (if any)
  • Delivery method and technology needs (if applicable)
  • Evaluation/assessment approach
  • Relevant policies and student supports

Transparency, student supports, and public postings

We maintain and publish key student facing policies and procedures to support a safe learning environment and clear expectations.
In Ontario’s career college context, certain public postings are required or strongly expected for transparency—such as publishing the Sexual Violence Policy on the website and publishing (or linking to) the most recently published Key Performance Indicator (KPI) results when applicable.
We also maintain a formal Student Complaint Procedure to help ensure concerns are addressed fairly and in a documented way.

Important disclaimer about outcomes

Education supports skills and competence, but outcomes depend on many factors (learner performance, attendance, assessment results, employer requirements, and external conditions). We do not market programs using guarantees of admission, completion, employment, or immigration outcomes, consistent with the Ministry’s advertising expectations.
