Certificates of Completion*
& Short-term Training Awards

You don't need to complete a two-year degree to prepare for some of the jobs that may be of interest you. Many programs offer Certificates of Completion that you can usually finish in one year. Another alternative is getting training for a specific workplace skill and receiving a short-term training award. The amount of time required for short-term training ranges from a few hours to one or two terms. Contact the departments or individuals below for more details.
