50 Professional Certifications for 50 Years of Skills-Based Education

At ECPI University, Certifications a Top Priority

At ECPI University each class we teach, each program we offer is centered on particular skills and how they relate to a specific profession. That’s the way it was in 1966 when Alfred Dreyfus founded ECPI University, and that’s still how we do it today. It’s a big reason why so many prefer our graduates. They know an ECPI University grad can hit the ground running, with little or no additional training.

While an ECPI University degree can open many doors, we also stress the importance of professional certifications. These national-recognized credentials validate each graduate's abilities based on third party, independent assessments. In fact, professional certifications are so important, that ECPI University has established a comprehensive program to incentivize our students to pursue as many as possible.

Exams for professional certifications usually cost several hundred dollars, but at ECPI University we provide our students with vouchers, allowing them to take up to five exams for just $15 each. Upon graduation, they receive five more vouchers for just five dollars more. 

Sure, it requires some extra effort but it can make a big difference after graduation. Just ask Michael Pfaff, Director of Information Technology at Network Data Security Experts.

“Having certifications allows you to provide that ‘up-front’ proof to clients or employers that you have the dedication, education, and interest in expanding your technical skills. To put it into perspective, if you were an employer and you had two prospective candidates for a position, one of which was not certified in any capacity and the other was MSCE, CCNA and/or Security + certified, who would you look to bring onboard?”

In addition to the incentives we provide our students and graduates, ECPI University also makes test-taking convenient, with many of the exams proctored right on our own campuses.
