Hartwick College Expands Workforce Training with New Online Professional Development and Career Courses
Hartwick College is expanding its commitment to workforce development and lifelong learning through a new suite of online professional development and career training courses offered through the Griffiths Center for Collaboration and Innovation.
Designed for working professionals, career changers and lifelong learners, the new offerings provide flexible, skills-focused learning opportunities in partnership with ed2go. Courses are fully online, instructor-led and structured in six-week sessions, with new classes starting each month. Pricing is designed to be accessible and affordable, varying based on course length and format.
The program emphasizes real-world relevance, giving learners the opportunity to build new personal and professional skills in a format that fits into busy schedules. Courses are intended for professional enrichment and do not carry academic credit, but participants who successfully complete their coursework will receive a certificate of completion from Hartwick.
“Our goal is to meet learners where they are and provide practical, high-quality, accessible training that can make an immediate difference in their careers,” said Noah Goldblatt, executive director of the Griffiths Center. “As employers continue to evolve and demand new skill sets, there is a growing need for flexible, affordable learning pathways. These programs extend Hartwick’s impact beyond traditional degree pathways and respond directly to workforce needs in our region and beyond.”
In addition to general professional development courses, the program includes a robust portfolio of career training options aligned with in-demand fields. These programs are developed by industry experts and often prepare participants for nationally recognized certifications.

Career training programs are self-paced, allowing participants to start at any time and progress on a schedule that works for them. Many include textbooks and learning materials, as well as access to expert instructor support throughout the course.
The Griffiths Center also offers customized training solutions for businesses and organizations. These tailored program bundles allow employers to align course offerings with specific workforce development goals, supporting employee skills enhancement and organizational growth.
