PDP Provides a Path to Certification

PDP offers Certifications recognized around the world. Most Certification sequences are composed of four sharply-focused courses. You may complete a course sequence in a single year or in as many as four years.

For those interested in earning more than one Certification, you can apply one course that has been applied toward a completed Certification toward a subsequent Certification. For example, completion of "Marketing Management" is a requirement for both the Certification in Hospitality Management and the Certification in Hospitality Marketing. If you are interested in earning both of these Certifications, this course may be applied to both sequences.

You may wish to pursue a Certification that requires a course or courses that cover material with which you are already familiar by virtue of your experience or prior education. The Office of Executive Education would be happy to assist in course selection that best suits your experience and education.

As you plan your courses for 2012, you are encouraged to keep full Certification in mind. Use the 2012 Certifications Guide (PDF) to see Certifications and their associated courses. You may earn Certification in any of the following specialized areas:
