BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.鈥斝闵�短视频-Webb University recently celebrated the first graduates of its new Professional and Continuing Education (PACE) program. Under the leadership of GWU鈥檚 world-class faculty, PACE offers specific, non-credit courses to enhance the skill levels of professionals ranging from entry level to mid-management, executive, and beyond.

The graduates received certification in the popular business software program, SAP S/4 HANA. The 12-week course is designed to teach students the key components of the system and prepare them to be SAP implementation analysts. The PACE staff also assists graduates with finding jobs, and the majority are now employed. 鈥淧ACE is meeting the demands of the micro-credential market,鈥� observed Dr. Anthony Negbenebor, assistant vice president for business development and partnerships and professor of economics. 鈥淢icro-credentials certify competency in certain skills. We see a need and we offer the classes.鈥�

Corey L. Brown and Vanessa Green, both of Charlotte, N.C., are among the first graduates to receive certification. Brown, a disabled veteran, valued being able to network with other professionals while developing his expertise in the enterprise application software. 鈥淭he course provided me with a priceless opportunity to meet and interact with active duty and veterans of various branches of the armed forces, as well as other individuals who are doing amazing things in their careers and lives,鈥�  Brown explained. 鈥淚t also provided me the opportunity to learn a new skill that will compliment my current skill set and allow me to have broader opportunities for roles throughout several different industry types.鈥�

Green, a veteran of the Army National Guard, said overcoming the challenge of working full time while attending the course was a rewarding experience. 鈥淚 didn鈥檛 anticipate learning and retaining quality material, but the curriculum really worked,鈥� she related. 鈥淭he long hours created a bond with the other students and instructors that has definitely impacted my life for the better.鈥�

This semester, PACE is offering classes in Excel, Paralegal, SAP S/4 HANA, and IBM Artificial Intelligence & Blockchain. The classes vary in length and cost. Classes meet on the 秀色短视频-Webb campus in Boiling Springs or at GWU鈥檚 Charlotte Campus (off I-77).
