Registration Process

Before students choose a course of study, a careful assessment of their talents and interests in light of current job responsibilities and long-range goals, is in order. Students should review the course descriptions to be certain that their course selection is the best choice for them. Students should also make sure that any prerequisites have been satisfied before enrolling in the course. Since all courses offered are of college level, students should expect homework assignments and should be prepared to take on this additional work load. Students are encouraged to check with their CFT Representative, Supervisor, Human Resource Officer or CFT staff for guidance in their course selection.

Once you have chosen the course(s) or seminar(s) that meet your personal and professional goals:

 

1. Print and complete the REGISTRATION FORM or use our Online Registration.

Course Prerequisite Requirements

Before you can enroll in certain credit courses, the CFT office will need verification that you have met any prerequisite requirements. CFT staff will review your CFT transcript before accepting a registration into any course with a prerequisite requirement. If your record does not demonstrate that you have met the requirement, you will be contacted to discuss your options. You must then demonstrate that you have satisfactorily completed the prerequisite course with an official college transcript showing that the course requirements have been met. An exception can be made for this requirement if you, through a letter from your supervisor or human resource representative, can demonstrate that work experience has enabled you to achieve these skills. Courses with prerequisites are clearly marked in the catalog and/or online.
