Credit for Certification

Gain Credit for Earned Certifications

Students can gain free college credit for completed industry certifications at 黑料福利网 Community College. This policy is to allow students who have already mastered skills to continue forward with their studies instead of taking classes for content they already have learned. Students are required to provide proof of completion (e.g. official transcript providing successful completion of exam) to the Coordinator in order to be granted credit for the course.
