Personal Enrichment Program (PEP)

PEP Schedule

What is the Personal Enrichment Program?

Bellevue University's Personal Enrichment Program (PEP) will help you reach your personal, academic, and career goals. The objectives of the program are:

  • To provide you with the knowledge and skills needed for continued personal development.
  • To provide you with the tools and resources needed to overcome obstacles and successfully complete your academic program.
  • To provide a venue beyond the classroom for you to connect with your peers, Faculty, and professional networks to meet career objectives.

Online student options for PEP

Distance students unable to attend campus workshops can now complete similar mini-lessons for personal development through Blackboard! Topics will be added throughout the year, so keep checking back for additional opportunities to gain knowledge and skills.

  • Log into Bruin Connect
  • Select the Blackboard chicklet
  • On the left menu, open the Organizations tab
  • Click "Personal Enrichment Program" group to begin your journey!
