How to Receive a Combined/Group Certificate

If you have taken courses in the past and you're interested in a certificate, you will need to provide the following information to Kim Hunsinger, Assistant Director for Program Management and Marketing at kah@ku.edu:

• Your full name
• The calendar year(s) when you attended the classes
• The course titles within a track listed on the previous page and the instructor or instructors who taught the classes
• The public course venue or company facility where each class was held
• The project numbers of the courses provided on your individual course certificates
• Your current address and phone number

Upon verification of your eligibility, you will be asked to pay a nominal fee for shipping and handling (USD $10.00 for domestic shipping and USD $25.00 for international shipping) and a combined certificate will be mailed to you at your current address.
