School of Medical Laboratory Science and Technology Eha-Alumona, Nsukka, runs a three-year Medical Laboratory course to train students who enroll in the school. At the conclusion of their studies, they take a MLSCN licensure examination. Upon graduation they are equipped with the knowledge, skill sets, disposition, competency, and professionalism as certified by the Medical Laboratory Council of Nigeria.

They become medical laboratory technicians eligible to work in health care facilities under the supervision of a qualified medical laboratory scientist both within Nigeria and abroad. The program is committed to meeting the employment needs of medical laboratory technicians in health care services in Nigeria and ECOWAS member States. As a missionary school of the Daughters of Divine Love, a salient aspect of our program is grounding our students in a moral framework for healthcare, combining bioethics with Catholic teaching.

Students who successfully complete the program can enter the workforce directly or matriculate at a university to begin graduate coursework. For both tracks, they should be able to demonstrate competence in a clinical laboratory setting and perform routine procedures with accuracy and precision. They should be able to recognize and adhere to safety policies while upholding ethical standards alongside co-workers, patients, and clinical personnel.
