The Career Development and Occupational Studies (CDOS) Commencement Credential is a Board of Regents endorsed exit credential that recognizes the student’s readiness for entry-level employment. The CDOS credential is not a recognized diploma and is not considered a local or Regents diploma. The credential alone will not allow students to meet postsecondary requirements for entrance to SUNY Adirondack. Students are encouraged to contact the College Access (Admissions) for further information.
