CCS Coursework for the CCS Certificate
- CCS students attend classes designed specifically for Career & Community Studies and TCNJ elective courses.
- CCS courses focus on independent living, financial independence, computer literacy skills and career awareness and discovery.
- TCNJ elective courses are selected by the student’s area of interest and are taken independently and/or with mentor support.
- A CCS Certificate requires students to participate in both CCS and TCNJ coursework in addition to practicum and internship hours.
- CCS course development is in progress. A course syllabus for each course will be provided at the beginning of each semester on the first day of class.
- Course offerings will continue to increase as they become available to CCS students.
