What degrees and certificates do you offer?
The certificate of completion (CC), the certificate of achievement (CA), and the associate in science (AS) degree. You may earn the CA first, then continue your enrollment to earn the AS degree. The CC is for professional programmers interested in upgrading their skills.
How do I know which advising sheet to follow to help me choose my classes?
