Professional Development extends continuing education services and programming resources to address the lifelong learning needs of its students. As part of MTSU’s College of Continuing Education and Distance Learning, Professional Development’s mission remains constant -- to provide educational opportunities to non-traditional students with opportunities spanning professional development, career services, conference planning, senior studies, computer training, and personal enrichment.

Professional Development pushes the boundaries of distance, time, and accessibility to reach out to students wherever they are. We offer our programs in a variety of modes, helping people of all ages achieve CEUs and certificates, accomplish professional development goals, and pursue recreational and intellectual interests. Our diverse educational opportunities, quality programs, and dedicated service give lifelong learners access to the vast and valuable resources of our university. We go the distance to make lifelong learning a reality for anyone, anywhere, because we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to improve his or her quality of life through higher education.

The Professional Development division is growing and evolving to better meet the needs of our students.  We have developed a new online course catalog and registration system to make it easier for you to find the programs that fit your needs.
