Adult Education
“Dr. Nikischer helped me see the connections between social justice and adult education. She helped me to strengthen how I engaged with adult learners. Some people think you cannot develop relationships with professors online, but that is not true.”

Assessment in Higher Education Advanced Certificate
"The assessment certificate provided me with an opportunity to gain additional relevant knowledge in my field. The online asynchronous coursework allowed me to create a schedule around my employment to maintain my full-time job. The content was exactly what I needed to better understand the importance of assessment in higher education and had practice-based learning opportunities. Although the courses were asynchronous, I always felt the faculty were available to assist and guide me throughout my time in the program."
