Washington has a minimum requirement of 90 credit hours of education of which this certificate is only a part.
You will need to demonstrate to the Department of Health that in addition to the certificate courses listed here,
that you have a MINIMUM total of 90 approved credit hours, half of which are the certificate courses.
Prerequisites for entry into this certificate program include HSSUB 131, ENG 101 and GBUS 102.
