Handbooks, Guides, Manuals

Circle Officers Handbook 

The Circle Officer Handbook is online as a collection of page with information and links to resources throughout the ODK website. because information changes quickly as we respond to various needs, we opted not to create a PDF version which would require professional graphic design.

Initiation Handbook

There are two versions of the 2025 Initiation and Ritual Handbook.
2025 Omicron Delta Kappa Initiation and Ritual Handbook (PDF)
2025 Omicron Delta Kappa Initiation and Ritual Handbook (Word)

MyODK Officers Guide (Part 1) – Application Set-Up and Management (coming soon)

Launched in July 2024, MyODK is now the OΔK membership engagement portal. It all starts with the application. Officers need to sign in to MyODK to access the Circle Executive Dashboard.

Recruitment and Initiation Guide 2025-26

This is a PowerPoint presentation with links to resources such as the interactive recruiting timetable.  The Recruitment Guide also has information about the policy that allows the initiation of sophomores and OΔK’s determination to recruit and select a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive membership.  Look for this to be ready by mid-September 2025.
