Professionals looking to boost their skillsets or retrain for new opportunities can enroll in the many Badge courses offered at Wichita State in the fall 2024 semester. With Badges, professionals can take bite-sized, one credit hour or less courses to learn or enhance their skills.
Wichita State has been a national leader in creating a standard for microcredentials, allowing employers to be confident that meaningful learning has occurred when you list the badge on your resume. Badges are developed with input from employers, government licensing agencies, trade associations and faculty.
One such series of Badges is the Human Resource Management series, which can enhance your capabilities of being an effective supervisor. Badges in this series cover designing jobs, recruiting, hiring, managing and mentoring employees.
Employees at Wichita State can also apply for Tuition Assistance to cover the cost of Badges. The final application window for Tuition Assistance closes Aug. 2.
