Policies
Professional Certificate Budget Policy
This policy outlines the framework for developing a comprehensive budget for a professional certificate (Cert B) course, incorporating target enrollment, administrative fees, marketing and breakeven analysis to ensure financial sustainability and program success.
Professional Certificates are required to create a certificate revenue FOAP. Enrollment fees, instructor pay and other marketing and administrative expenses will be pulled from this account. Please contact Leslie Blakeman if the program of origin does not have a Professional Certificate FOAP setup, she can assist with development.
Program, College and University revenue splits happen during fiscal year end. Enrollment revenues should be tracked and accounted for accordingly.
Certificate Proposal Submission Policy:
This policy outlines the process for submitting new or revised Professional Education Certificate proposals for review and approval. It ensures that all proposed certificates align with the University’s mission, academic standards, and professional education goals.
Completed proposals are reviewed to ensure quality, feasibility, and alignment with institutional priorities before Curriculog submission.
Submission Deadlines
Proposals should be submitted at least six months prior to the intended launch term to allow adequate time for review, marketing, and enrollment planning.
Professional Certificate Enrollment Policy
To ensure efficient processing and organization of professional certificate enrollments, this policy establishes a deadline for accepting applications and enrollments. Applications for professional certificate programs will not be accepted within ten days prior to the start date of the certificate program.
