  2. AAS in Culinary Arts What is it?: The Associate of Applied Science degree in Culinary Arts proposes to add one new course (i.e. Café Internship). Why/Value?: Three Reasons-- 1) Increase the breadth of the learning experience for the students 2) Provide ‘real world’ work experience 3) Increase ability to obtain programmatic accreditation (e.g. American Culinary Federation)

Why/Value?: Two Reasons-- 1) Enables the program to remain current with teacher training requirements 2) Supports seamless transferability between a graduate’s 2-year degree and 4-year degree with partners, such as University of Central Arkansas and Arkansas State University

  4. CP in Information Science Technology What is it?: The Certificate of Proficiency in Information Science Technology will be enhanced. This program of study will enable students to augment their education or complete a stand-alone program of study to increase their technology skills. Why/Value?: Two Reasons-- 1) Integrate a new course which prepares students to pass CompTIA A+ Certification 2) Provides cutting-edge technology skills to increase success in the field of information technology (e.g. web design, programming, information security, etc.) and/or to increase employability

  5. TC in Information Science Technology What is it?: This Technical Certificate in Information Science Technology will build upon the Certificate of Proficiency and add general coursework at an advance programming course (i.e. Java Script). Why/Value?: Two Reasons-- 1) Create a broader and deeper IT knowledge base 2) Increase employability by providing the following skills: (a) computer programming, (b) web design, (c) local area network set-up, (d) database management, (e) computer and network security, and (f) software and hardware troubleshooting
