We incorporate the expert resources and knowledge of Penn State faculty and research into non-credit programs designed to enhance and improve performance.  We meet with business leaders and community stakeholders to identify performance gaps that can be improved through education. Using this information, faculty develop programs that meet the delivery and performance expectations of our partners. Our programs and services are offered at times and locations that best meet the needs of our students and educational partners. While some are offered at a business, industry, or corporate location; others use campus resources to enhance their programs with an educational experience.  We also ask organizations how we can customize training to fit their needs by offering Program Select.
