A new program from the Association of the U.S. Army provides members with the opportunity to gain professional certifications, degrees and credentials at a discounted rate.

The Enhance Your Life certification program, working with AUSA’s National Partners and accredited universities, offers a pathway to personal and professional development for soldiers, AUSA members and their families, said retired Sgt. Maj. of the Army Daniel Dailey, vice president of NCO and Soldier Programs at AUSA. The program offers credentialing, certification, licensing and education opportunities at reduced rates.

“As the Army’s premier professional association, AUSA is focused on providing our members with access to the tools they need to enhance their lives,” Dailey said.

Participants in the program gain access to a range of online courses aimed at obtaining certifications and credentials that can enhance their skills within the Army, prepare them for advancement opportunities and, later, smooth transitions into civilian careers.

More than 30 certifications are already available through the program’s first partners—Norwich University, First Command Educational Foundation, Columbia Southern University and Arizona State University.

Examples include Organizational Leadership, Project Management, Computer Forensics and Vulnerability Management, Military Problem Solving and Leadership, Procurement Management, Cyber Crime and Cyber Law, Public Health and many more.

Additional partners will be added to the program soon.
