Take the next step.
Continuing Professional Education (CPE) at Harper College offers career-focused training to help you gain in-demand skills, earn industry-recognized certifications, and prepare for new career opportunities. Programs are available year-round in high-growth fields such as technology, healthcare, real estate, business, and accounting, providing flexible pathways for professional growth and career advancement.
CPE courses offer non-transferable credit and may provide opportunities for credit for prior learning. Courses include assessments, attendance requirements, and assigned grades. While CPE grades appear on your Harper College transcript, they do not affect your academic GPA.
CPE works with the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) and the Paths to College and Career grant to offer scholarships for people who are underemployed, unemployed, incarcerated, and previously incarcerated.
