Professional Certificates are offered at the regional campuses for students who have already earned a bachelor’s degree and who wish to acquire additional skills and knowledge. Specific requirements include:

• Contain 24-37 semester credit hours, unless otherwise specified by accreditation standards
• Consist of the technical courses of the college’s two-year, career-oriented programs
• Require a baccalaureate degree to  begin or earn the certificate
• Require admissions review process
• Are approved following college governance procedures
• Are tracked via DPAs and transcripted

The process of creating a New Professional/Technical Certificate Program is similar to that of creating a New Undergraduate Certificate Program. Please utilize the guidance and procedures at the New Undergraduate Certificate Program link.
