The University Hall office serves as the primary point of inquiry and referral. It facilitates, promotes, and administers the delivery of contract credit courses, online courses, and other specialized non-credit professional development programs. This office also administers the award of CEUs, which are nationally recognized standard units of measurement earned for satisfactory completion of qualified programs of continuing education. OCPE provides this service to all Mason academic groups that deliver noncredit professional development programs.
The Prince William Campus office facilitates a variety of open enrollment and contract programs (both noncredit and credit) that support the strengths of the programs on that campus. Programs are designed to meet the professional development needs of the business community of the Prince William area, as well as Northern Virginia local and state government communities.
The OCPE Herndon Office located in CIT in Northern Virginia’s high-technology corridor facilitates a variety of professional development programs targeted to the area’s business and federal government organizations. This office reaches out to the business community by designing, marketing, and delivering noncredit training courses and in-depth certificate programs. Public seminars and customized, contract training programs respond to the needs and interests of managerial, technical, and professional employees in private, nonprofit, and public organizations located in Northern Virginia and the broader metropolitan area. |
