Most students achieve this certificate along with a degree or other certificate(s) often taking more than two years. It does require attending at least two Spring quarters (preferably in sequence), one Winter quarter, and most probably a Fall quarter. This map starts Fall but a student could start Summer or any quarter really with some rearrangement of course sequence bearing in mind this will probably extent the time needed to finish the certificate.
