The Community Engagement Professional Credentialing program offers a flexible, research informed pathway for community engagement professionals to deepen expertise, strengthen practice, and earn formal recognition across core community engagement competencies.
Participants earn a microcredential for each course by demonstrating mastery through assessment. Completion of five microcredentials (more below) qualifies participants to pursue certification which recognizes completion and demonstrated knowledge across the core community engagement competencies.
Whether you're earning an individual microcredential to address a specific part of your work or working toward full certification, our courses are developed for individuals considering careers in the field, emerging professionals, and established faculty and staff who want to continue their education.
Microcredentials for specific subjects, stackable for full certification
