Computer knowledge is essential in todays highly
technological society. GSW's
Online Computer Science Certificate Program is designed to train individuals
to fully utilize available software packages to their utmost potential.
The certificate program consists of eight required courses and three
elective courses. You have up to
18 months to complete these courses. Courses
last six weeks and have 12 lessons. Two lessons are released each week, one on
Wednesday and the other on Friday.
Once you have completed all twelve lessons in each course, you must
take a final exam for that course. The
final exam comes out the same day as Lesson 12, and you have two weeks from
that release date to complete the final.
Once you pass the final exam, you can print out a letter of completion
for that course. Take each course
and spend time practicing what you learned while at home or on the job before
going on to another content area. Copies of all 11 completion letters must be
sent to GSW Continuing Education in order to receive your certificate.
