Students who graduate from our non-degree, non-credit certificate programs shall be awarded a Certificate of Completion attesting to the successful completion of studies. Students who graduate from our degree program shall be awarded a degree-granting Diploma for Associate of Occupational Studies. The basis of granting academic credit is dependent upon a combination of general student performance on maintaining satisfactory grades and attendance that are contingent on passing grades on exams and tests, class participation, and completion of all given assignments and projects.
