After the successful completion of training in a transportation core curriculum, students can decide upon four different options. Motorcycle Service Technician I and II are two of the certificate options, requiring the completion of an additional three quarters of curriculum each. There is also a Certificate of Proficiency, which encompasses power equipment, marine and motorcycle. This certificate requires the completion of four additional quarters of curriculum, and more than doubles the program credits of the previous two. Finally, students can opt to complete a 116 credit, six quarters Associate of Applied Science Degree, as well as deciding to specialize in one or more areas after completing basic instruction.
