St. Andrews Presbyterian College Launches New Online Certificate Programs

Feb. 19, 2009 - PRLog -- (Laurinburg,  SC)  - With the recent success of its online initiatives at  the Center for Adult and Professional Studies, St.  Andrews College launched  three new online certificate programs for adult learners. The certificate programs expand St. Andrews' online offerings and also meet the needs of the increasingly  demanding adult learner community.

Taking  a cue from its successful equestrian programs that cater to traditional  students, St. Andrews now offers online certificates in Therapeutic Horsemanship Business Management and Equine Business Management to meet the needs of its non-traditional  learners. Equine professionals who seek to deepen their therapeutic horsemanship  business and equine expertise can now gain vital knowledge through the Therapeutic Horsemanship Business Management Certificate. Current and future equine  professionals who desire to expand their business and equine proficiency can  obtain a Certificate in Equine Business Management to advance their careers.

The third certificate program focuses on  the rapid rate of change in the global economy, and it  spotlights how people in managerial positions must adapt and become more innovative  than ever before. The Organizational Leadership Certificate  is designed for business professionals who seek to increase their understanding  of leadership and management of people in the workplace.

The  three certificate programs are available to students who have graduated  from high school or a state-approved GED program and are at least 23 years of  age. Students who complete these programs successfully will earn a certificate  of completion that they can apply to future degrees at St.  Andrews or easily transfer to  other institutions. Combining in-demand certificate programs with smooth and  seamless delivery harnesses St. Andrews' ability to deliver excellent education.
