Humble ISD offers multiple opportunities for students to earn Industry Based Certifications.
“Industry Based Certifications are credentials that validate an individual’s skill and knowledge within a specific industry or occupation and are aligned with recognized industry standards,” Humble ISD Senior Director of Personalized Student Success Dr. Melissa Leigh said. “Earning an IBC during high school provides our students with immediate access to jobs and careers when they graduate high school.”
Examples of IBCs offered by Humble ISD include American Welding Society certifications, Veterinary Medical Applications, Adobe certifications, Student Social Media Marketing, AutoCAD, Patient Care Technician, and many others.
Highlights of the 2024-2025 school year for Humble ISD students included:
An increase of almost 600 IBCs earned compared to the 2023-2024 school year
97% of graduating cosmetology students earned their cosmetology license (39)
97% of students who took the Volunteer Income Tax Preparer certification passed the exam (111/114)
100% of the students in our new dental assistant program earned their Dental Assistant permit (16)
