Attendance Policy: Full Stack Development Certificate Only
Full Time Progression
In order to ensure the students’ progress meets completion requirements, the following attendance is required.
Each student’s term is 13 weeks (8 hours/day, M-F) or 26 weeks (4 hours/day, M-F) in length and determined by the start and end dates signed on the enrollment agreement. Students must not miss more than 40 hours during the 13-week or 26-week term to prevent being dismissed directly due to attendance.
Students who fail to progress to each benchmark within the suggested timeline, must participate in remediation which consists of the following steps:
a) official notification of unsatisfactory progress with the student committing to an academic progress plan (email and follow-up call, from program administration), then, the following if no improvement,
b) official notification of unsatisfactory progress from the Academic Team and follow-up call,
and finally,
c) the student may be academically withdrawn. (Extenuating circumstances must be approved by Academic Dean.)

Full Stack Development Program
The Full Stack Development program term length is ten months for part time students and determined by the start and end dates signed on the enrollment agreement. Students should complete Coding Foundations (prerequisite) in the first month to be able to proceed in the Full Stack Development Certificate program in the second month. The following progression is the suggested benchmark achievements to keep the student on track. However, the student will be evaluated monthly on progression through to the end of the program at month ten. The measurement of completion (attainment of benchmark) will be recorded at the end of each month.
