Over time, we revamp programs of study. This page identifies previous, but no longer available programs that may function to confirm the certificates and diplomas earned by students. To confirm the credentials earned by a CASI graduate, please feel free to contact CASI directly. Some courses may vary in the programs below. They have been adjusted to reference current courses where applicable.

​
