Cooperative Credit Program - Welcome

Enhance your professional development trainings, classes, and workshops with university credit! Whether it is in-house trainings, classes through school districts and ESDs, a special speaker’s series, or a professional conference, high-quality programs may be eligible for academic credit through PSU’s Cooperative Credit Program in the Continuing Education Department (CEED) of the Graduate School of Education.
The Cooperative Credit Program provides teachers, teachers-in-training, administrators, aspiring administrators, trainers, human services professionals, and other education professionals an opportunity to receive university credit for taking classes offered by our partnering or "cooperative" agencies (schools, school districts, nonprofits, companies, and other providers of professional development for educators).
