Human Services

Tacoma Community College ETPL
The Human Services program is a competency-based program designed to prepare students to work as practitioners in social, mental health, and addiction service agencies. The program offers a 3 tier certification process: a one-quarter (15 credits) Case Aide certificate; a three-quarter (45 credits) Human Services certificate; and a two-year Associate in Applied Sciences in Human Services. All students must successfully complete internships (clinical practicum) in community agencies of their choice in order to qualify for either the certificate in Human Services or the AAS.
