Programs

Our professional development programs are offered at Penn State campus locations throughout Pennsylvania. If you are looking for professional development in business, education, engineering/technology, health, or justice/government, these credit and noncredit programs are for you. Check with the Penn State campus nearest you for times, fees, and other costs.

In our Web site's business section you will find a list of credit and noncredit programs that can make you a better leader, sharpen your communication skills, teach you business essentials, and give you cultural awareness in your workplace. Other subject areas include landlord rights, the workings of regional economies, and labor studies and industrial relations.

Our education page lists a variety of professional development opportunities for teachers, as well as a master's degree program. You can learn how to enhance your use of technology in the classroom, or obtain certification for teaching English as a second language. We focus on No Child Left Behind legislative concerns with a course on teaching students with autism in inclusive settings, and we offer opportunities to learn instructional strategies. All programs are offered for graduate credit and are approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Education for Act 48 hours.

On the engineering/technology page you can explore program topics that include the fundamentals of information sciences and technology, Internet software development, engineering leadership, and AutoCAD®.

The health page features programs of interest for nurses, school nurses, and others in the health profession.

The justice/government page outlines our training programs for paralegals and those who deal with legal issues in business and with the elderly.
