Advance Your Skills in This Rewarding Field
Course Registration
Once you are accepted into your program, expect to be contacted by your program manager for program advising. With certificate courses starting every Monday, it's essential to register for your first course at least one week in advance—no later than the Thursday before classes begin. If you're not ready to commit to the full certificate program, you have the flexibility to take a single course and explore the curriculum first. In the rare case of a course cancellation, you'll be notified by the Friday before the scheduled course start date.
Earn Credentials in Medical Writing and Editing
Participants who complete the full online program earn credentials in Medical Writing and Editing Training, certified by the University of Chicago. Students will receive a digital course badge after successfully completing each individual course. Upon meeting all certificate requirements, students will be awarded a certificate of completion.
