Admission Requirements

Participants should have completed a B.A. or B.S. degree, or its equivalent in workshop or work experience.

English Proficiency: Students who are non-native English speakers are expected to have adequate English language proficiency. For details, see English Language Guidelines.

International Students: This program does not qualify as full-time study, and therefore does not meet requirements for an F-1 visa. However, if you are an F-1 student currently enrolled full-time in another program, OR you are in the U.S. on some other type of visa (not F-1), you may be eligible to take a certificate program or course. For complete details, or to contact an adviser, see Visa Information.

Earning the Certificate

Participants must successfully complete the program, according to the standards established by the instructors and the advisory board, to earn nine Continuing Education Units (CEUs) and a certificate that is presented at the annual UW Extension awards ceremony. Please note: No other courses or programs may be substituted toward fulfillment of the certificate requirements.

Registration Process
