Workforce Programs
Collin College offers workforce programs to jump-start your career. In some cases you can be prepared to get your first job in less than a year.
Workforce certificates are usually stackable. You can get a certificate then return for a few more courses and all will apply toward your degree. This allows you to continue improving your skills and moving up in your career.
Though these degrees are not specifically designed to transfer to 4-year schools,
some universities are developing programs that will accept this coursework and apply
it to a Bachelor’s degree. This means that if somewhere down the line you decide
to work on that 4-year degree, there are options for you.
