Certificates of Completion (CC)

A certificate of completion is generally a one-year program.

Associate Degrees

Stacking

Students can start an entry-level certificate program in high school and then “stack” their credentials towards greater and more valuable industry endorsements or licensure.

For instance, the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) Certificate stacks well into the Medical Assistant Certificate. Similarly, the entry-level Certificate of Proficiency in Phlebotomy builds a foundation for further licenses in health professions.
