Registration Clearance: It is the student's responsibility to contact this office detailing plans for the upcoming semester in order to be cleared to register. We have added this web page that outlines our upcoming course offerings. Please refer to this page prior to the start of the new semester. You must contact the office by email. Only when the student receives an email confirmation will he/she be cleared to register. If this office does not hear from you, we will assume you are not enrolling for the upcoming semester and thus you will not be cleared to register.
Projection: Certificate students must also identify the semesters in which you want to take your five certificate program courses. This will aid us in the planning of our course offerings. Email your updated program paths to the Regulatory Affairs Office.
Course Offerings: The course offerings listed above web are subject to change depending on student needs. Furthermore, we must have a minimum of 5 students to enroll in a given class in order to offer the course.
Certificate Completion: At the start of the semester in which you expect to complete your certificate program, please send me an email reminder that you will be completing your certificate program.
Check back often as the courses listed may change.
