Professional Development Position Yourself for Career Advancement

LSU Online & Continuing Education provides access to professional development courses and certificates that empower you to stay ahead in your industry. Our programs help you build a practical, comprehensive skill set you can use to advance your career faster. Learning formats are ideal for working adults, and coursework may be completed online, in person, or at the workplace.

In addition to professional development on an individual level, we also offer corporate training options. Many corporations, professional organizations, and government agencies turn to LSU because of our ability to interface with such initiatives as Louisiana’s Incumbent Worker Training Program and to deliver a standard of fully customized courses on-site.

Students can also earn a MicroCred, or digital badge, through certificate programs and professional courses by grouping together like courses covering topics such as construction management, accounting, and marketing. Some of these certificates can be applied to college degrees later on or taken as stand-alone programs.
