Description of the Program
The Certificate in Computing is designed for students who want a strong set of computing skills to increase their productivity in the computerized workplace.  Some holders of the Certificate will become "power users," that is, workers who are unusually proficient at using the power of ordinary office computer systems to produce results in the enterprise.  Other Certificate holders may obtain positions as entry–level computer programmers or Web developers.
