The Professional Development Team in the Graduate School offers three (3) non-credit certificates in:

• Leadership: go.ncsu.edu/leadership-certificate
• Teaching: go.ncsu.edu/teaching-certificate
• Communication Skills: go.ncsu.edu/communication-certificate

To earn a certificate, participants must complete foundational workshops, electives, partake in an experience and submit a deliverable. To find out more about the specific requirements, visit the respective “go links” listed above. These non-credit certificates are available for all graduate students and postdoctoral scholars. Once all the requirements have been met, participants will receive a certificate and, for graduate students, a notation will be placed on their transcript.

Filling out this form indicates your intent to pursue one or more of the above certificates (and you will choose which ones you want to pursue by checking a box on the right). Graduate students and postdoctoral scholars have to be either enrolled or employed at NC State University in order to earn the requirements towards any of the certificates. Although we keep records regarding attendance in our registration system, participants need to keep track of the workshops they have attended and when they attended them as well as copies of their deliverables.
