Dear Students,

In the pursuit of life-long learning, the Division of Extended Learning at National University offers professional development and personal enrichment courses in a variety of subjects including business, leadership, marketing, education, human resources and many more. Most can be taken completely online so you don’t have to leave the comforts of home as you manage work and family.

If you’re working full-time, check with your employer on your company’s tuition reimbursement plan. This is a great way to fund your education while learning a valuable skill that can strengthen your value to your employer and broaden your career options.

Do something for yourself by expanding your professional development, pursuing a special interest, or acquiring a new skill. Most courses provide continuing education units (CEUs) of credit that you may need to stay relevant in your industry.
