What's the Difference?
- Credit programs may be what you think of when you hear "college." These are traditional academic options that earn college credits, which count toward academic credentials such as an associate, bachelor's, or master's degree.
- Non-credit programs focus on skill development, professional advancement, and/or personal enrichment. Workforce development training programs can prepare you for professional licensing and certification exams and master essential skills to enhance your appeal as a job candidate.
No matter your goals, CSM is here to support your journey. Explore our pathways today!
