Additional information:

If you are participating in a certificate program, it is critical to pace your progress in the program. Pacing is important for two reasons: so that you are able to take advantage of a variety of courses that will best serve your needs and interests when a course is offered and so that you complete the program before your due date.

It is our policy to not extend program due dates as we feel the program time frames allow ample time to complete. If you are enrolled in a curriculum program and do not know your current due date, please contact osu-trng@okstate.edu for this information.

Disclaimer:

This certificate program requires a 2-year commitment at each level.
