What is a Certificate of Achievement?

Upon completing certain graduate-level courses in a particular discipline, you will receive a certificate of achievement from Cambridge College to recognize your training.

These focused, in-depth programs are designed to be completed relatively quickly and increase your marketability by demonstrating to employers that you have developed or improved skills in these specific areas. A bachelor’s degree is required for acceptance into these advanced certificate programs.

A certificate of achievement is not a formal academic credential and is not eligible for Title IV financial aid. However, the courses may be transferable to related Cambridge College degree programs, reducing the time and cost required to obtain a degree.
