upper division classes.
Degree & Certificate Options
Valencia offers many options for your students:
• Technical Certificates – shorter in length (12 – 35 credits) and are
designed to equip students with a specialized skill set for
immediate employment. Most can be completed in one year or
less, and all of the courses can be applied toward the A.S. degree.
• A.A.S. and A.S. Degrees – provide specialized training and are
designed to prepare students for immediate employment in the
workforce.

the university to complete their upper division courses.

business and industry employers, and allow graduates to move
directly into the workforce.

more than double that of a high school graduate.

education & health, and professional & business services.

the most new jobs.
