Delaware Tech Green Jobs Programs

Current Program Offerings

Delaware Tech provides three types of educational offerings. Credit courses are part of an approved curriculum or program of study leading to an associate degree. Students enrolled in such courses earn credits generally based on the number of hours per week spent in class. Non-credit courses include certificate programs, classes, workshops, or seminars which do not lead to a degree, but provide participants with an opportunity to learn or upgrade job-related skills to give them a competitive edge in the marketplace. Consumer education is free information about issues important to the community at large which will enable the consumer to make well-informed decisions.
