Industry Certifications
Cherry Creek School District offers Industry Certifications in a variety of pathways and courses. An industry certification is a credential recognized by business and industry at the local, state, and/or national level. Earning an industry certification allows students to demonstrate mastery of knowledge and skills; increase job prospects, marketability to employers, and employability; and can increase options for post-secondary education.
Industry certifications can be an assessment, examination, or license that is administered and recognized by an industry third-party or governing board. Industry certificates measure competency in an occupation, and they validate the knowledge base and skills that show mastery in a particular industry. Industry certifications are earned by the individual student, and may require time outside of class in order to receive certificate. Some industry certifications have a cost, which is the responsibility of the student, unless included in the course fee. Pathway teachers can provide additional information on the requirements for a student to earn an industry certification.
Not all industry certifications are offered every year in every pathway. Please speak to the course teacher for more information.
