Workforce Development
Workforce Development provides quality professional development and training opportunities throughout Kentucky and draws upon the expertise of faculty, area business leaders, and professional trainers to develop and deliver programs tailored to meet the current economic needs of business and industry.
We are dedicated to giving our students the best training possible through exceptional classroom and field experiences, thereby equipping professionals with the tools they need to be successful in their chosen occupation.
Digital Badging
EKU has partnered with Badgr to issue digital badges to students completing training with EKU Workforce Development & Community Engagement. Digital badges are a real-time transcript that can inform a potential employer about your particular skill-set. Our system also includes a pathway tool that provides a visual way for you to track your progress through one of our certificate programs. You can use the pathway tool to determine what courses you should plan to take next to complete your certificate program.
Online Courses Through Partner Providers
Eastern Kentucky University is proud to partner with Ed2Go and MindEdge to provide a wide variety of quality online courses for professional development.
