Certificate Description

This certificate offers a solid foundation in general education, equipping students with the essential skills needed for both transfer success and career readiness. It emphasizes the National Association of College and Employers (NACE) competencies, including critical thinking, communication, career and self-development, and professionalism, which are vital for academic and professional achievement. Designed to align with general education requirements, this program seamlessly stacks into any transfer-oriented associate degree, helping students build a versatile academic background and a strong foundation for further study.

This certificate contains coursework that may be transferrable; however, the Lampitt Law requires students to earn an AA or AS degree in a similar program in order to earn the benefits of seamless transfer. Please consult an advisor to discuss additional coursework for degree completion.
