Why Earn a Graduate Certificate of Completion?
Most industries these days require that employees gain new skillsets, but it's not always the right time to pursue a graduate degree. Certificates of completion allow students to increase expertise (and value to their employer) in a quantifiable way at what is often a lower cost and lower time commitment than a formal degree.
Stepping Stone to Master's Degree
In addition to its immediate benefits, certificates of completion can also be a stepping stone into a Master's degree. Students completing a certificate can easily transfer their credits into the MHI program, gaining familiarity with the instructors and general material that make for an exceptionally smooth graduate experience.
