CAPS Undergraduate Certificate Programs

In order to provide CAPS students opportunities to take electives that will allow them to focus on specific career-oriented areas, the College of Adult and Professional Studies offers Certificates in four broad career areas. For a current listing of courses and information, please see http://caps.indwes.edu/certificates.

Certificates are available to students in the baccalaureate and associate programs, and to students who are registered as unclassified students.
