If you are a busy professional, you may not have time to go back to traditional school. Studying for your graduate ICS certificate online allows you to receive the training you need and want without having to spend hours at school.
While many resources for the ICS Certificate study can be readily found online, there are additional resources (books, video lectures, etc.) which you will be needing for successful completion.
The cost of those resources is above and beyond the charges for tuition to the University or Institute, and, as such, are the responsibility of the student.
Please, see also Important information and guidelines for our new students >>
There are no classical lectures or classical evaluation tests; you will be, however, required to write six shorter academic papers (up to 2.000 words, 4 pages, 12 point font, single-spaced), demonstrating your insight into each course subject AND demonstrating practical skills required at each course. In addition, your studies will be supported by short quizzes and tests implemented into our LMS platform.
Full support of your Mentor regarding these skills is available throughout the Program.
Our intention is to contribute to your theoretical AND pragmatical development, bridging the usual huge gap between formal studies and real life.

Rushmore does not limit the number of students who may enroll at any given time, and practices a “rolling admissions policy.” Students may begin their studies at any time during the calendar year and are not required to either admit or matriculate at any specific calendar time.
If you are accepted for admission, you will either be eligible for immediate enrollment or you will be put on the waiting list for the first available place in our program.
As we screen applicants, one of the most important guiding criteria for admission is our assessment of your goals and your determination to achieve them.
While a previous undergraduate degree in a relevant field of studies is preferable, for professionals with extensive professional experience, the Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) may be considered.
The RPL’s eligibility for the Professional Development Graduate Certificate in ICS would be examined on a case-by-case basis.
