This course equips learners with the knowledge, practical skills, and competencies required to conduct cytological and histological techniques in applied biology laboratories. The course focuses on the principles and procedures involved in microscope care and maintenance, cytological specimen preparation and examination, and histological specimen processing and analysis. Learners will gain hands-on experience in handling laboratory equipment, preparing specimens, observing cellular and tissue structures, interpreting results, and reporting findings according to established laboratory procedures and standards.
The course also develops competencies in microscope operation, cell structure identification, specimen collection and processing, laboratory safety, and accurate reporting of laboratory outcomes. Through practical activities, projects, assessments, and portfolio development, learners will acquire the skills necessary to perform cytological and histological procedures in professional laboratory settings.
