Footnote:
AUTO-367A-95: 1. This class mirrors the for-credit class of the same number (367A mirrors 67A), so the course description is the same. 2. Non-credit courses are intended for students who want to gain general knowledge, learn a new skill, upgrade existing skills, or enrich their understanding of a wide range of topics. 3. Non-credit courses cannot be used to earn an associate degree nor any college transcriptable certificates. They can, however, be used to earn non-transcriptable vocational certificates. 4. This course meets six weeks beginning April 8th. Be sure to register for both first and second-six week courses at the same time.
