A transformative education
Careers and family life tend to get hectic, but the College of Professional and Continuing Education strives to make this transformative education work for everyone, no matter their situation. Our students range in age from their 20s to their 70s and come from all walks of life.
Creighton will continue to meet the needs of our busy adult learners. And we will continue to count on our alumni and friends for their guidance and support.
We couldn’t offer an education of this quality without the support of donors like you. When you make a gift to the College of Professional and Continuing Education, you help us meet our greatest and most urgent areas of need, including scholarships, faculty development, mission, academics, programs and other initiatives that fuel the Creighton experience.

In the right place
“My Creighton education has given me a better appreciation for the world around me and my place in it. Thank you for supporting my education. I couldn’t have come to Creighton without your help. Knowing that others support me helps me through moments of discouragement. It keeps me going. It lets me know that I belong at Creighton.”
— Heidi Knofczynski, College of Professional and Continuing Education
Supporting others
“I’m studying leadership and communications through the College of Professional Studies, and it’s been an amazing experience. It’s given me the flexibility to balance my education with my job and life. And it's had a profound impact on my perspective. Since coming to Creighton, I've grown as a leader and a person. I now have a strong desire to give back and support others the way others have supported me.”
— Terry Sanders, College of Professional and Continuing Education
