Credit programs focus on courses related to degree attainment while non-credit programs provide professional training, certification, and personal enrichment. Credit programs focus on maintaining clear relationships with academic units leading to the strategic development of continuing education programs and activities. Professional staff members are assigned as liaisons to each academic college, providing expanded educational options for nontraditional students that bridge gaps and eliminate barriers in achieving each student's educational goals. Professional development and personal enrichment programs focus on connecting organizations and individuals with comprehensive training and education programs to improve personal knowledge, performance, increase productivity, decrease costs, and get bottom-line results. Team members work with individuals and organizations to understand their vision and identify subsequent training and education needs and objectives. The team provides both customized training and open enrollment programs that focus on certifications, performance improvement and measurable results. As part of Continuing Education, the Professional Development and Personal Enrichment Team extends the resources of the university to the community to achieve educational goals for individuals and organizations. This group manages and occupies the Center for Continuing Education, which is located adjacent to the WSU Davis campus and Weber State Downtown in Ogden.

These classes match the WSU course content and student performance criteria. These students, though not officially matriculated at WSU, still create a WSU official permanent transcript. WSU academic department representatives work closely with these teachers to provide professional development opportunities as well as to assure WSU standards are maintained. The State of Utah provides a funding allocation that enables students to participate by paying a small tuition.
