Certificate Programs in UCLA Extension

Estudia en UCLA - Chile UCLA Extension is the continuing education division of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), one of the leading universities in the world. With access to UCLA's instructors and resources as well as working experts from Los Angeles industries, UCLA Extension provides academic, career, and personal development for adult professionals. Each year, UCLA Extension is the choice for over 3,000 international participants from more than 60 countries.

UCLA offer over 50 certificate programs for professional development that meet the requirements for full-time international study. Upon completion of a certificate program, participants are awarded a certificate bearing the seal of the University of California, Los Angeles -recognized worldwide for high-quality education.

One of the greatest advantages of these programs is that they are highly practical and focus on real-world issues in each field of study. The majority of the instructors are working professionals in the subjects they teach. Thus, course lectures, activities, and discussions focus on the day-to-day challenges that professionals face on the job.

Another advantage of the programs is that they are very reasonably priced, especially considering their in-depth and thorough nature. Costs can be more easily managed because you pay for your courses quarter by quarter rather than all at once.

As an international participant in the programs, you will have the benefit of studying side-by-side with American students and professionals, some of whom may already be working in the same field. Thus, you will have opportunities to share experiences with your classmates and instructors.

If you qualify for Optional Practical Training (OPT) upon completion of your program, you can gain practical work experience in the U.S. for up to 12 months.
