The Ogun State Polytechnic of Health and Allied Sciences, Ilese-Ijebu was established on 28th September, 1976 mainly to train middle-level manpower for the delivery of primary health care. Thus, becoming the first post-secondary educational institution in the State.

In April 2006, the Governor of the State consequent upon the passage of a bill establishing the College by the State House of Assembly graciously assented the bill into law. Thus, upgrading the College to a full Polytechnic status.

However, on the 15th February, 2023, the Governor of the state again announced the change of name of the College from Ogun State College of Health Technology to Ogun State Polytechnic of Health and Allied Sciences.

The Polytechnic programmes/courses are regulated by both National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) as well as various professional health Boards/Councils which makes our training unique and holistic. The Polytechnic had since been graduating top quality middle and senior level manpower for the delivery of health care services in Ogun State particularly and Nigeria in general.
