Accreditation

All Xavier Leadership Center programs are eligible for continuing education units (CEUs). Additionally, through our partnership with the Ohio Society of CPAs, all XLC programs are eligible for continuing professional education (CPEs) for Certified Public Accountants to maintain their professional competence and credential. That means whether you’re taking a leadership program, a certificate program, or simply enhancing your personal effectiveness, you earn required CPEs toward your CPA accreditation!

Several of our programs are in alignment with industry-specific standards, such as our Project Management Certificate program with the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide).

Digital Badging

Completing any professional development is an accomplishment worth celebrating! For all of our programs, whether they are private for your organization or at Corporate University, we offer digital badges that can be shared on social media or added to resumes and portfolios. For certificate programs, digital and hard copy certificates of completion will also be shared to further signify your hard work and achievement.
