Certificate Program Information
NHTI Certificate Programs are designed to prepare students for immediate employment in a variety of exciting fields. The Certificate Programs can help students attain their career goals in a short period of time (some programs require as few as four to six courses!). These Programs also provide opportunities to continue on to obtain an associate degree in the same or related field of study.*
Some of the advantages of enrolling in a program instead of remaining in non-matriculated status include:
- potential eligibility for financial aid;**
- academic counseling to help students plan the next step in their education and/or career; and
- students will receive certificates promptly after successful completion of their program (see Certificate Program Completion, page 79) .
The programs listed in this brochure are available days and/or evenings as noted. To apply for a program, simply complete and submit the certificate application, located in the back of this brochure, together with a $10.00 non-refundable application fee, to the Admissions Office. Be sure to review the certificate program listing for additional documents that may be required. More specific information can be obtained by calling the Admissions Office, the individual indicated on the program page or Continuing Education.
Please Note: students must apply for and be accepted into a program to receive their degree, diploma or certificate.
