Most courses are offered in an accelerated format that reduces classroom time and increase outside class activities. Accelerated courses are highly interactive and are offered at consistent times to accommodate working adults. Graduate in as little as two years by attending part-time, one night a week, year-round. Course are sequenced to allow graduation for the certificate programs in approximately five months.

General education courses are not included in the accelerated format and are therefore not included in the sequence of courses. General education courses need to be taken concurrent with the program courses in order to graduate in two years.

Some courses may be offered online. Courses may have approved substitutions, contact the program advisor for details.
