The Certificate in Training and Development is a non-degree graduate program for lifelong learning students offered through the Department of Leadership, Policy, and Adult and Higher Education at North Carolina State University. Lifelong learning students are those students who are classified by the University as NDS (Non-Degree Studies) for purposes of registration.
The Graduate Certificate program consists of a selected set of for-credit courses that are offered in an online format. The courses are selected to offer a cohesive continuing education opportunity for people in training roles in business, government, military, and not-for-profit sectors. This program is designed for the person who has recently advanced into a training position and is without the academic preparation needed or for those choosing to increase their knowledge and skills in training for current or future jobs. The program is not intended for career exploration nor is it a prerequisite for a graduate degree program. The program is made up of a minimum of five 3-credit courses. The student will complete the identified Certificate courses through continuous enrollment (excluding summer sessions) until contract requirements are met. Participants must hold a baccalaureate degree to enroll in the Certificate Program. All courses have the potential for transfer into the online M.Ed. in Training and Development.
Curriculum: The program requires completion on the following five courses.
EAC 580 Designing Instructional Systems in Training and Development
EAC 583 Needs Assessment and Task Analysis in Training and Development
EAC 584 Evaluating Training Transfer and Effectiveness
EAC 586 Methods and Techniques of Training and Development
EAC 559 The Adult Learner
