Want to obtain a certification in a short amount of time, or interested in gaining an edge over other students in a college program you are planning on entering? Short term programs can be extremely useful both as stand alone education and as a lead-in to a full length programs. They are typically very focused, and are often designed to help students obtain a specific certification upon completion.
Short term programs are great for those who are looking for a quick turnaround between worker training and finding a job, as the skills taught are tailored to a specific job description. Short term programs are also great for those who are considering participating in a full length program, as they can help students decide if they want to pursue a particular field of study. If a student decides to pursue a traditional program after taking a short term program, they will at an benefited by have a background in the field.
One example of a short term training program, is the EPA Brownfields Training Academy, offered by Clover Park Technical College. Upon completion of the course, students have been exposed to the basics of contaminated site cleanup and how to handle and dispose of hazardous waste.
