A professional course is a college-level course planned to target those who are in, or about to enter, the personnel in corporate, government or technology fields. Consider taking a professional course if you want to reinforce your skills in areas such as team management, computer technology and health and safety.

Professional courses are special courses, offered at many colleges and universities that put prominence on professional development. Unlike academic courses, these courses usually do not require prerequisites, sometimes do not offer credits and are specifically oriented toward professionals wanting to develop skills useful for their specific work surroundings. For example, West Liberty University offers professional courses in computer use, portfolio development, grant writing and administration. These courses are usually categorized under “Continuing Education” or “Professional Studies” at universities. You are awarded a professional certificate upon completion of a professional course.
