Professional development

Herts offers an extensive portfolio of CPD courses designed to provide opportunities for businesses and professionals to expand their knowledge and enhance their workplace effectiveness. Courses can be academically accredited or non-credit bearing and delivered flexibly to suit organisational or individual needs.

In addition, the University can collaborate with your organisation to create bespoke, customised courses and training packages that directly target the needs of your business and employees. We can then work together to formally accredit your in-house run courses, so they count towards a formal academic award.

The University will help your organisation ensure it gets the most from its investment and truly adds value to its workforce by;

• Identifying and addressing skill gaps to increase business-wide performance
• Improving employee motivation and increasing loyalty and retention
• Driving a focused, adaptable and committed team
• Ensuring greater organisational flexibility

Herts has been recognised for its excellence in teaching and learning, alongside a proven record of delivering exceptional work-based learning programmes.

The University’s CPD short courses are informed by industry and are led by experienced professional practitioners and academic subject experts. Partnering with public and private sector organisations at a local, regional and national level, ensures bespoke learning solutions are delivered that consistently address business needs.

This is coupled with the research we do as an institution which continually informs and improves our courses, whilst giving access to a phenomenal breadth of knowledge and extensive resources.
