13 Learning and Development Certification Programs to Boost Your Career

These learning and development certifications from industry-leading organizations may help you develop your L&D niche, establish your expertise, and advance your career.

by Kimberly Valentine on December 15, 2023

Whether you’re looking to expand your knowledge in a specific subset of the learning and development (L&D) industry, credential your L&D management experience, or gain the skills you need to build new programs that meet evolving objectives at your organization, earning a learning and development certification may be the place to start. Take a look at our collection of corporate training certifications for you to consider. 

Every professional, no matter the industry, will hit a point in their careers where they need new specific skills to reach the next step. As a learning and development leader, you’re an expert in identifying these areas for others and ensuring they have the proper training resources, but it’s important to also pay attention to your own learning needs.  

“As L&D professionals, performing a skill-gap analysis is ingrained in us, yet we often don’t think about performing one on ourselves to figure out if a certification is even necessary,” says Sarah Cannistra , a former L&D leader who’s now a career coach and founder of The Overnight Trainer, a career consultancy for L&D professionals.

How to Find the Best Corporate Trainer Certification Programs  

When advising clients on whether or not pursuing a corporate training certification is the right decision, Cannistra asks three questions: 

  • Do you know your L&D niche? 
  • What skills does that niche require?
  • Do you need a certification, or do you need to upskill by reading a book or joining a professional community? 

“If there are enough skills that need to be developed, and there is a certification that covers the majority of them, that is when I typically recommend a certification of some degree,” she says. 

Similarly, Terry Jones , a global career coach who previously led L&D teams, recommends exploring learning and development certification programs as ways to advance in your career, showcase your skills when seeking new opportunities, and gain expertise in a new area. “The opportunities for networking and community involvement that come with the certification can be invaluable, providing broader insights into the industry and aiding in professional growth,” he says.

In general, when researching learning and development courses and certifications, be sure to consider the source. Jones notes, “The reputation and accreditation of the issuing institution are crucial, as these factors can impact the perceived value of the certification in the professional marketplace.”

Then, think about your personal needs and goals. The right certification program comes down to its alignment with your L&D niche. “I caution against pursuing certifications that don’t directly support the individual’s career strategy or might result in a scattered professional profile, leading to a lack of depth in any one area,” Jones says.

Unlike many other programs that primarily focus on project development, the Project-Based Learning Certificate program  is unique in its artifact-based approach to learning about implementation.

Participants of the program are organized into "home teams" consisting of educators who share similar contexts. Expert instructional coaches facilitate home teams . Coaches guide your teams in deepening your understanding of PBL.  This collaborative learning model allows for valuable feedback and fosters a strong sense of community among participants. Each home team is led by an experienced coach who facilitates discussions, acts as a point of contact, and provides personalized feedback on participants' shared classroom artifacts.

Participants are expected to collect, analyze, and share artifacts from their classrooms, typically in the form of classroom videos. They will also provide feedback to other participants. Additionally, participants will create a portfolio of their learning at the end of each semester. The program entails approximately 5 hours of monthly commitment, including 1-2 hours of synchronous home team learning. At the end of each semester, participants may need to allocate up to 8 additional hours for completing program-related tasks.

The Project-Based Learning Certificate Program offers a valuable opportunity for educators to enhance their knowledge and skills in implementing project-based learning. By focusing on practical implementation strategies and fostering a supportive community of like-minded professionals, the program aims to empower teachers and school leaders to create meaningful and impactful learning experiences for their students.  

Program Format

This program consists of multiple required sessions and one optional summer summit experience. Before and after each session, you will complete a set of readings, activities, and reflections to help you prepare and apply what you have learned.

Home Team facilitators will determine each group’s exact meeting dates and times based on participants’ availability.

As an ECFS student, you'll explore careers in early childhood education, and engage in courses that focus on research, curriculum, policy, language and literacy, mathematics, science, and technology. Additionally, you'll participate in extended community-based learning experiences, working directly with children in preschool classrooms or childcare centers. This unique combination of academic coursework and practical application will help you develop a comprehensive and culturally relevant understanding of child development and effective teaching strategies.

Our program frameworks emphasize creating engaging interactions and environments that support individualized instruction and culturally responsive anti-bias anti-racist education. This program prepares you to be an early childhood professional who understands and actively works to dismantle systems of oppression.

We believe early childhood professionals learn by applying knowledge through action, observation and reflection. ECFS students take part in Community Based Learning (CBL), a place-based education, centering learning in the physical environment, local culture, history, language, and with the people of a community.

You will have many opportunities to integrate your classroom experience into your CBL Experience. You will build on your cultural and contextual knowledge of children’s learning through real-world opportunities to apply your knowledge and skills in early learning settings.

Our students participate in two types of experiential learning:

  • Community-Based Learning Experience : Weekly time spent engaging with young children through your work or volunteering in an early learning setting is required for many courses.
  • Applied assignments: Examples of applied assignments include videos of your practice, environment or child observations, case studies, and an interview with a professional or parent. These may be completed at your Community-Based Learning Experience site.

Already working or volunteering with children in an early learning setting? You can complete the community-based learning experience at your current job! If you need support finding a setting, our CBL coordinator will help you find a place to do your community-based learning.

View the ECE Community-Based Learning Guide

It will take a minimum of 7 quarters to complete the program. To graduate from the University of Washington, you must have a minimum of 180 quarterly credits. How long it takes to graduate depends on a number of factors, including how many credits you are transferring in with and how many credits you take per quarter as an ECFS student.
