Q: I am interested in finding out what College’s in the US are leaders in developing online certificate programming? And what certificates they have created?
A: Based on a LERN Survey, following are the top ten most offered certificate programs for 2012. I will ask one of our other consultants to provide information on the leading organizations. Because almost all colleges offer certificate programs, picking leaders is difficult. Langara College in BC is certainly a Canadian leader. I will look for more information on colleges in the US.
