Is there are charge for consultations and custom courses for departments?

I noticed that the workshop description lists a start time for the session, but no end time. How long is a workshop?
Most workshops will last 3 hours. However, on occasion, they may be a bit shorter or longer. If you need to know the exact length of a workshop, email us and we will provide that information to you.
Can anyone attend the Business/Accounting Certificate Program?
Yes. The program is open to all employees; however, course information is targeted towards those individuals with business and accounting responsibilities.
I understand that Professional Development Program staff provides custom training for departments. Can I request custom training for our student employees?
Unfortunately, the staff is only available for the training of University
employees. The staff can help you locate trainers on campus that may
be able to meet your student training needs.
