CE Certificates

Pima’s Continuing Education offers noncredit certificate programs designed for skill development from entry-level to advanced positions.

The certificates provide flexible, affordable options for both employees and employers to increase skills, flexibility and production in the workforce.

The certificate requirements include one or more noncredit course. Many include CEUs (continuing education units), a recognized, standard unit of measurement for continuing education and professional development activities.

Individuals may enroll in individual classes without completing a certificate.  However, only participants who complete all required courses for a specific program will receive a certificate of completion. 

Participants must contact Continuing Education at 206-6579 when they complete all required courses satisfactorily.

For course availability, check the CEU class schedule for CEU courses and the Continuing Education class schedule for other classes.
