Should a Certificate of Completion be issued to a student who attended less than 100 percent of a prelicensing course?
No. According to California Code of Regulations Section 2188.5 (a), a student must attend 100 percent of a prelicensing course in order to earn a Certificate of Completion. This requirement means that any sessions missed by a student must be made up. An instructor must work with the student to go over the missed materials before certifying that the student has completed 100 percent of the class and materials.
