Program Description
The Brief Computing-Software Applications Certificate program is designed to meet the growing need for computer skills. Students and members of the business community need computer training for current and future employment. The program is designed to be “generic,” which supplements a two-year degree program or as a stand-alone certificate for those already in the working world. The student must have career goals or a profession in which to apply the computer skills gained through the certificate program.
The primary goal of the certificate program is to teach students to use the computer for daily business operations. Special attention is given to “hands-on” experience using popular software applications.
The certificate will indicate to the employer that the certificate holder has the skills to effectively utilize a computer.
Career Opportunities
Employers today are eager to find employees who, in addition to being trained in their area of expertise, possess computer software application skills. When the brief computing-software applications certificate accompanies an AAS degree or a working person earns a certificate, they enhance their skills and improve their employability.
