Certificates available from ˿��Ƶ Tech

New for Fall 2024, ˿��Ƶ Tech is launching 12 new certificates designed to boost your knowledge and skills in new areas. Most of these certificates are only six classes and can be completed in as little as three terms, or completed over a longer period, based on your needs.

Why would you consider a certificate instead of a degree? Certificates have a direct focus and a shorter time commitment. For all certificates other than our Polysomnography program, we suggest you apply using our Non-Degree Seeking application. The Non-Degree application does not have an application fee and there aren't any admission requirements to meet!

Application Process

Admission to ˿��Ƶ Tech as a degree-seeking student is not required for most of the certificates above. Instead we recommend our Non-Degree Seeking application. Financial aid is not offered to certificate students but a payment plan is available. Applicants to the Polysomnography certificate must apply as an Online First-Year or Online Transfer student.

Follow the steps below to get started:

Submit the Non-Degree Seeking Application.
Watch for an email from the Admissions Office confirming you are admitted.
Register yourself for classes when registration opens.

Non-degree seeking students do not pay application fee or matriculation fee since they are not attending a degree program. We also do not require official transcripts from your prior schools. You could complete up to 8 credits per term in fall, winter, and spring terms, and 15 credits in summer term.

A Little Bit ˿��Ƶ Me
My name is Tessa Rae, I was named after a Tesserae or mosaic art piece. I am a fourth generation in the United States Armenian. I was born and raised on the beautiful ˿��Ƶ Coast. One of my most interesting hobbies includes roller skating on the beachfront. I am currently homeschooling my daughter while attending school full-time online. I am very active in my community in the many ways I can be. I have over 1,000 volunteer hours with at-risk youth. Many of my elective credits were spent studying science. If I could, I would stay in school for a lifetime due to my passion for learning.

Why I Chose ˿��Ƶ Tech and My Major
˿��Ƶ Tech has a number of dedicated and professional students. This creates a very studious atmosphere that drew me into admission. I myself am very dedicated and studious. I always knew I wanted to major, minor, or dual major in psychology. It not only aids with career development but also interpersonal development.

My Influential Professors
I have had a number of influential professors at ˿��Ƶ Tech. One stands out to me the most. He not only taught me valuable course material but also demonstrated how a model mental health professional should act. His nonverbal communication spoke volumes. He was calm, dressed professionally in a neutral way, and expressed an immense amount of empathy for everyone around him. He taught me the ethical and moral values of a counselor which are some of the most valuable course material I have learned thus far. He made sure that students learned to understand, not memorize. I hope one day I am as excellent of a role model as he has been.

My Greatest Learning Experience At ˿��Ƶ Tech
I have had a number of enlightening moments here at ˿��Ƶ Tech, my most memorable has been my internship at Klamath Basin Behavioral Health. During this experience, I learned much more than I have from previous instruction. The hands-on experience taught me that I have a lot of the necessary qualities one needs to work in the mental health profession. I learned about the Klamath Tribes' history, culture, and tribal healthcare offered to Native Americans in the area.

My Plans After Graduation
Once I graduate with my Bachelor of Science in Applied Psychology, I will pursue a master's degree online in either teaching or school counseling. I have an immense passion for working with children and assisting future generations toward their academic and personal goals. This work will be very rewarding and will fit well with my own schedule raising my daughter as a single mother.
