They may include remote learning, instructor led in-seat learning, hybrid courses, and online courses.

About Financial Literacy for Business Professionals

This certificate program provides individuals working in business with a fundamental understanding of principles of accounting. It provides a strong foundation for individuals seeking positions in bookkeeping, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and payroll processing. It also provides individuals working in other aspects of business-important concepts for financial literacy.   

Student Evaluation

Students’ academic progress will be evaluated after each course grade has been awarded. In general and unless otherwise stated, the minimum grade to maintain satisfactory progress is 70% or C-. Students must achieve a minimum term grade point average of 2.0.

A course may not be repeated more than once without approval of the designated academic official. Grades achieved in courses that are repeated due to course withdrawal (W, WP) or failure (F, WF) will replace previous withdrawal or failing grades. A student who is approved to repeat a course due to a failing grade (F, WF) must successfully pass the course by the third attempt. After three failed attempts the student will be academically dismissed (for appeal of academic dismissal, see Appealing an Academic Dismissal).
