Metropolitan State University’s Institute for Professional Development … where business and learning meet
Business professionals across the Twin Cities have the opportunity to learn practical, in-demand skills to advance or change careers.
Institute for Professional Development (IPD) programs and certificates focus on delivering practical, applicable, high quality, demand-driven, relevant, and affordable courses that empower participants to immediately apply their new knowledge, tools, and techniques to their careers.
Continuing education classes are offered in a workshop-style atmosphere- which means: no tests to take, no papers to write, and no grades to stress about. Instead, there are interactive activities, meaningful discussions, application of life experiences, and networking with other professionals. Join a certificate cohort or spend a few hours or a day in a course to target one skill. In a short time, learn a new approach or gain leadership experience to help advance your career and make more money!
Our instructors use case studies and focus on what happens in the workplace rather than what happens in a text book. They have worked or are currently working in the roles and the industry that you are learning about; so they understand your challenges and want to facilitate a learning experience you will find useful and enjoy.
We also offer Customized Training!
We build and deliver customized training and bring it to your organization. Choose from our areas of expertise highlighted by the continuing education courses or choose from proven training delivered to other organizations in the areas of:
- Intercultural competence
- Crisis Intervention Training
- Team-building with Strengths-Finders
- Quality Improvement Projects
- Continuous Improvement
- Project Management for Government Entities
