Professional Edge Empowers Students

The Professional Edge program is an industry-informed collection of trainings and immersions to help prepare students for the modern workforce.

We do this in a couple different ways.

So, the first is through our training programs, which help prepare students with the marketable skills that are desired by employers.

These skill sets range from more durable skills that go across different job types to in-demand technical skills that are desired in specific industries.

Students have the ability to earn microcredentials through these opportunities that can display to an employer exactly what they had to do to earn that microcredential and the skill sets that they now possess to be able to bring into that employer.
