The Program
Libraries and learning resource centers are critical components of the information age.  Special training is needed in order to organize and retrieve information.  Out of this need has come the occupational area of the library/media technician.

This program provides training in skills, attitudes, and knowledge leading to a Library Technical Assistant Certificate which can be applied in many occupational areas.  In order to earn a certificate, students must achieve a minimum grade of "C" in each of the program courses.  A certificate of achievement will be awarded to the student upon successful completion of the program.  Click here for Certificate Disclosure information.
