Business Technology Web Maintenance (I-BEST), Certificate of Completion

33 CREDITS

Program Admission Dates: Fall, Winter, Spring, Summer

The I-BEST Business Technology Web Maintenance Certificate prepares an increasingly diverse workforce to begin an educational/career pathway in business technology. It provides ESL and ABE students with the opportunity to pursue the Web Maintenance Certificate of Completion while continuing their progress in Basic Skills (ESL and ABE), and it is intended to be an articulation option to the Business Technology, AAS  degree as well as to the Multimedia Design and Production (MMDP) Associate in Applied Science degree. The primary goal of the certificate is to prepare students to use the various software applications in the work environment as a support tool to enhance day-to-day business operations.

All professional-technical courses (BTE, and MMDP) are taught with a 50% overlap of the professional-technical faculty and the basic skills (ESL) faculty. In addition to the professional-technical courses, I-BEST students are required to enroll in ABED 070 Communication Skills Computer Applications I  and ABED 082 Communication Skills Web Applications I .

Lake Washington Institute of Technology does not offer every course each quarter. It is the student’s responsibility to consult the Class Schedule and work out an individual schedule with an advisor. Any developmental coursework a student may be required to complete may increase the program length.
