Certificate for Admission & Enrollment Professionals ©

The Certificate for Admission & Enrollment Professionals (CAEP)© is the Admission and Enrollment Management profession’s first and only certificate program. It’s self-paced and online to best fit your individual schedule.

The Purpose

Earning the CAEP© certificate is a distinction within the industry of admission and enrollment management professionals and illustrates your support and commitment to the schools and students you serve.

CAEP is designed for professionals in the Admission and Enrollment departments at PK—Grade 12/PG independent, private, or parochial Schools who want to enhance their knowledge and skills in admission and enrollment management. You will learn best practices for attracting and retaining students, implementing effective recruiting strategies, and maximizing enrollment numbers. We will also cover key topics such as financial aid, marketing strategies, student retention, and enrollment forecasting.

The Program

This certificate and the Admission and Enrollment Management Professional program are based on AISAP’s Learning and Development Framework (update link from current site) and Professional Competencies and Behaviors. They support individuals responsible for admission and enrollment management with content that will increase their knowledge of their roles within their schools and the industry. This will help them meet the challenges of the admission landscape and understand their leadership role in advancing their schools.
