PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT CERTIFICATE

The Professional Development Certificate offers a flexible academic program designed to promote a very broad base of knowledge and skills. Since this certificate is not directly aligned to a particular occupation, it is more focused on personal education rather than specific occupational training.

This certificate program is perfect for students who want a broad, classic education prior to selecting a major or concentration of study. It includes a balanced curriculum with coursework in communication and life skills, critical and analytical thinking, and social awareness. Many of the required courses for this certificate are offered online to accommodate students who have to juggle career and family obligations along with their studies.
