The Computer Competency Test (CCT) assesses students' computer competency. It includes mostly performance-based simulations and some knowledge-based questions taken online in the Testing Center. Students are encouraged to review the and prior to taking the CCT.
In response to the increasing demand for computer skills in the workplace, all degree programs will require the demonstration of meeting a Computer Competency requirement (CCR). Students entering MCC or changing their Program of Study after (and including) the 2016 catalog year will be required to demonstrate their computer competency prior to degree completion.
Students may demonstrate their computer competency in one of two ways:
NOTE: Some programs require taking COMG-153; taking and successfully passing the course demonstrates the competency. For those programs that do not require COMG-153, a competency test-out option is available and can be taken in the Testing Center.
