Professional Readiness
When you earn a microcredential in professional readiness, you'll be a professional with the skills, knowledge and abilities that employers need most when it comes to hiring and promoting individuals.

Admissions
As part of OSU’s requirements for microcredentials, students must complete at least one course in the microcredential after applying for and being accepted to the microcredential program; and at least one of the courses in the program must be taken online via Ecampus.
Current degree seeking students and current non-degree students can enroll in a microcredential program by contacting OSU Ecampus.
New non-degree students should contact the Office of Admissions for more information.
Microcredentials are available for non-degree-seeking students through our application portal. These programs are offered online through OSU Ecampus, with four start dates per year. You can often apply closer to a term start date.
We want you to be focused on your education, not concerned about how to pay for it. We have financial management workshops and trainings for every student focused on long-term and short-term planning. Please check them out, and connect if you have questions.
Students wishing to pursue a microcredential in addition to an OSU degree should apply as a degree-seeking student with a major of their choice and add the microcredential once they enroll.
Microcredentials are available for non-degree-seeking students through our application. These programs are offered through OSU Ecampus. Learn more about microcredentials.
