Certificate Program

A Certificate Program is a series of classes that teaches a specialized job skill.

Classes may require orientation prior to enrollment; however, many classes are open-entry, open-exit which means you complete classes at your own pace. When you finish all the classes required for a program, you receive a signed Certificate of Completion that verifies your education, and the skills you learned.

All classes are free. Materials and book fees vary for each class.
