These 15 unit doctoral certificates are designed to expand your practice, increase job opportunities and meet the requirements to become nationally certified in your specialty area.
Students in the Certificate program are required to attend 3 immersion sessions, one before the start of your clinical courses to learn procedures and one at the end of the program.
Students enrolled in a certificate program only are not eligible for financial aid. Courses taken after completion of a degree program in order to complete the certificate are not eligible for financial aid.
