Technical Certificate

The Northwest Kansas Technical College awards a technical certificate to students satisfactorily completing a program of study. To receive a technical certificate a student must attain a grade point average of 2.0 or above. Students who are rated below a 2.0 will receive a transcript. Neither the transcript nor the technical certificate will be given to the student until all fees and bills owed to the college have been paid. A certificate of completion will be issued to students completing a program of 16 or less credit hours.

Students in the Cosmetology department are required to take and pass the Kansas State Board of Cosmetology Written and Performance Examination prior to being awarded the technical certificate from the Northwest Kansas Technical College.

Each student completing at least nine (9) weeks of the requirements in a program of study will be entitled to receive a Northwest Kansas Technical College transcript. The transcript will list the student's completed classroom/lab activities and the progress attained in each area of instruction.

Certificates are awarded to students who successfully complete a program of study that provides the knowledge and skills needed to enter the workforce. Students working for a technical certificate must successfully complete the course requirements and program specific competencies with a 2.0 or higher GPA.
