The Certificate in
Human Services prepares students for entry-level career positions in a wide
variety of human service occupations.
The coursework is also designed to meet the educational needs of
entry-level, non-degreed workers in human service programs seeking career
advancement. This
Certificate program will also meet the needs of individuals who are choosing to
change careers and have general education college credit, but no coursework in
the art of helping or skills in navigating the human services delivery network If a student has prior or current
experience in human services, academic credit may be obtained from several
Experience Based Education alternatives. These credits can be applied to the Certificate. NOTE:
Most health and human service agencies require a CORI (Criminal Offender
Record Information) for student interns and employees.
Students who wonder if a formal CORI check will show a history of
criminal offenses should meet with the Program Coordinator early in their course
of study, since certain offenses preclude employment in the human service field.
