Here are answers from Continuing Ed for some student questions:

a. Students do not need to declare their intent to complete a certificate program.

b. The Fall catalog went on the UCC website yesterday. The print version will be out in about 3 weeks, however, he can access the catalog under the Continuing Education link and register at any time.

c. In terms of grading, instructors are advised that for certificate programs students should receive either a letter or number grade that is written on the roster. It is up to you to decide how their achievement is assessed and can be a combination of homework, class participation, projects, quizzes, tests, etc.
