Why Professional Certificates?

Professional certificate programs are ideal for busy adults who are considering a career change, honing career skills, or pursuing a passion. All programs are focused courses of study that can be completed within a short time frame.

Continuing Education Units

Noncredit Professional Certificates qualify for CEUs (Continuing Education Units) once completed in entirety. CEUs quantify and officially acknowledge the dedication and determination you’ve invested in your professional development as you update your credentials, pursue a promotion, await an assessment of your current position, or explore a new career.

Note

Students may take individual courses without commitment to an entire program, or complete the program requirements and earn a certificate.
