Business Certificate Training Programs (Titles only)

CCSU's ITBD has a strong background in working with businesses and labor in the community and has established the Business Certificate Training Program. People's training needs range from those without job readiness skills to those who, with some assistance, could qualify for higher level Manufacturing, Quality, Engineering, Business, Information Technology, Construction and Administrative opportunities. Additionally, some people, with the proper training, may even start their own businesses.

ITBD provides a series of modules and programs that range from 40 to 160 hours. Participants, depending on their current skill capability, can elect to enter a module or program based upon experience. A certificate will be awarded upon completion of the module or program. These modules or programs require a minimum of 4 participants to run and can take up to a maximum of 18 participants.

In addition to participation in individual modules listed as blocks A thru P below, individuals may select a "Career Opportunity Certificate Program", as noted below, which are a composite of select modules A thru L, designed to enhance the skill level of participants looking to enter a particular field of endeavor. The pricing for a program is listed at a reduced rate, as compared to individual modules.

Classes will be scheduled as soon as there are at least 4 participants registered.
Call the ITBD at (860) 827-7875 to register. Registration is open to the general public and those who qualify under the Trade Act, Workforce Investment Act and TANIF.
