Elective Categories: Course Development 1, Multimedia & Presentations 1
This course is not specifically required for any certificate, though it may be used to fullfill elective category requirements.
- Elective courses may only be applied towards one certificate; credit for a completed course will not be counted towards the elective requirements of multiple certificates.
- Courses from higher level categories may be used to substitute for elective requirements in lower level categories (ex: a course from the Desktop Publishing 2 category can be used to fulfill the requirement for a course from the Desktop Publishing 1 category).
- Elective courses can not be double counted; if a certificate requires eight elective courses, eight separate courses in the appropriate categories must be completed to receive that certificate (even if a specific course falls into multiple categories).
