Dr. Matt Davis Bellevue University

"Generative AI is transforming how we work, think, and innovate across every industry. At Bellevue University, we're actively investing in new academic offerings that help learners use AI efficiently, responsibly, and creatively. We're for equipping today's workforce to lead change—not just adapt to it."

Dr. Matt Davis
Executive Vice President and Dean of the College of Engineering, Technology and Management, Bellevue University

"Artificial intelligence can amplify our abilities, but it cannot replace our judgment. Every algorithm carries assumptions, and every output deserves scrutiny. When we question, analyze, and reflect, we transform technology into knowledge. This is the kind of AI-readiness employers want."

Dr. Kate Joeckel
Program Director, Communication Studies & Business and Professional Communication, Bellevue University

What Can You Do With a Certificate of Completion in Artificial Intelligence?

The Benefits of Certificate Programs for Adult Learners

While each company handles tuition reimbursement or assistance differently, the process generally starts with these two steps:

  1. Check your HR policy: Review your employer's tuition reimbursement or assistance guidelines to understand deadlines, documentation, and maximum reimbursement amounts.
  2. Get approval: Many programs require pre-approval before you enroll in courses. This ensures the program is eligible and aligns with your career goals.

A certificate in AI can help you work smarter, not harder. It can streamline repetitive tasks, help you analyze information faster, improve communication, and support better decision-making.

Plus, AI skills are quickly becoming a core workplace expectation—similar to how computer or internet skills once were—so learning them now helps you stay competitive and forward-thinking, even if your role stays focused on people, service, creativity, or operations.
