Overview
Certificates of Completion are connected to occupational and/or industry standards and are meant to provide job skills, career training, or occupational readiness. These requirements are meant to be a guide. Individual certificate programs may have specific requirements beyond those listed here and students must meet the specified requirements in order to receive a One-Year Certificate.
One-Year Certificates may be aligned with Associate degrees. Each student is strongly encouraged to work with an academic advisor to match academic and career goals with an appropriate program.
