With eight career pathways, you are encouraged to not only equip yourself with the training and tools needed to succeed in a career, but to find your place in the world and pursue the life you\u2019ve always wanted. If you plan to earn an associate degree and transfer to a four-year university, we can help you along your path. If career training for a certificate or associate degree is more along the path you choose to take, we can help you find the program that is right for you. Before you register for classes, you should discuss your career goals with a San Jacinto College educational planner. We\u2019ll make sure you\u2019re selecting courses that meet the curriculum requirements of the certificate or associate degree you want to earn, or four-year university you plan to attend.
