This certificate will prepare students for work in iOS development on devices like the iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Apple TV. The certificate will provide students with native iOS design and implementation experience utilizing agile development methods, input from stakeholders, peer and professional review, integrated testing, and structured team collaboration. Students will build knowledge and skill by contributing to several mobile apps, culminating in a portfolio-ready capstone project.
Modalities
Coursework may be completed through a combination of in-person (web enhanced), hybrid and online modes, though not every course is offered in the same modality each quarter. Specific courses may be offered at certain times of the year. Consult the current Class Schedule.
Placement
Many courses at Cascadia College have placement prerequisites for reading, writing and math ability. The courses that you will place into determine how you progress through your pathway and how long your degree will take. There are a variety of ways to find your English and Math placement level.
Completion of any college-level math course requiring Algebra (MATH 085) as a prerequisite is required for admissions to the BAS Mobile Application Development Program.

Planning Your Courses:
Dedicated Academic Advisor: Students in the Web Application Programming Technology Program have access to a dedicated IT academic advisor. Your advisor will help you develop the skills to make academic and career pathway decisions. Through advising, your advisor will support you to make connections between academic interests, long term goals, and career opportunities. The IT advisor will assist with education planning, internship and career planning, and graduation processes.
The Annual Course Planning Guide shows Cascadia’s tentative plan for classes and the quarters in which they are offered. It is intended for planning purposes only and should not be considered a guarantee of class offerings. Actual quarterly sections may be changed, added, or removed. Students should use the Searchable Quarterly Class Schedule to see up to date class offerings.

Transfer Opportunities
Associate in Science Transfer Track 2, Pre-Engineering Major Related Program (MRP) Other (Mechanical/Civil/Aeronautical/Industrial/Materials) Science) Cascadia's Associate in Science Track 2, Pre- Engineering MRP Major-Related Program (part of the Direct Transfer Agreement) prepares you to transfer to a four-year college or university in a variety of engineering majors. Engineering is a broad field; one course of study will not prepare you for study in all the sub-disciplines in the field. Cascadia therefore offers three different “pathways” of study within the Associate in Science in Engineering degree.Cascadia College, Professional and Technical Programs
Career possibilities from the certificate are based off of the assumption that students have existing experience or work history related to this field. Certificates may compliment or build upon existing work or veteran experience. For those without industry experience, a degree will yield best job placement outcomes. The program will prepare students for opportunities with city, county and federal agencies, private sector employers and non-profits in roles such as:
- iOS Application Developer
- Mobile Application Developer
- Application Development Associate
- Java Developer
- Technology Project Manager
- Database Developer
