Career Advancement No Matter Where You Are

We recognize that professional development is an ongoing journey and that a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t work for modern workers in a dynamic job market. The Outdoor Recreation Economy program is designed with these factors in mind - which is why we offer several options for you to gain the knowledge, skills, and experience you need to advance your career.

Individual Courses

Available Now

If you are not ready to commit to a master’s or certificate program—or just need background and expertise in a particular topic—you may enroll in individual online courses as a nondegree student. This is a terrific option to test the program and the online format, and to tailor your learning.

Workshops

Coming Soon

Professional development workshops are designed for professionals interested in developing new applied skills and building expertise within the outdoor recreation economy. In-person workshops run between three to five days and are taught by both CU Boulder faculty and guest lecturers. These workshops will be offered in specialized areas in the outdoor recreation economy space and will broaden the knowledge base of participants, and expand their professional skill-sets. Participants may also be able to earn continuing education units (CEUs) upon completion of a workshop.
