You have several educational options at College of the Canyons:

1. Certificate Programs:

bulletWhat is a Certificate Program? Certificate Programs are a set of courses that prepare you for work in a specific career field. They are typically 18-36 units to complete. At the completion of the certificate you are well-prepared to gain an entry-level position in the field. No general education courses are required, so the time commitment is shorter than a degree program.
