Professionals with existing degrees may not wish to pursue a second degree. Instead, they pursue targeted, practical certification to supplement their skill set and learn new techniques. Certifications are an attractive, cost-effective option to encourage job retention amongst many employers.

As such, Polk State College offers two certificates for students who do not wish to pursue a degree. Each certificate may be completed in one or two semesters depending on students’ availability or full-time status.
