Everything here is labeled so you always know what it is: Catalyst training, curated outside training, a formal credential, or an official policy resource.
How to read this page
Four kinds of learning, clearly labeled
- Catalyst training — delivered by Unique Catalyst, with a Catalyst Certificate of Completion.
- Curated external training — Catalyst reviewed it and thinks it's worth your time. You enroll with the official provider.
- Formal credential — issued by an outside body. Catalyst does not issue these.
- Policy or official resource — from a state or national source, for reference rather than a certificate.
Catalyst Certificates of Completion show that you completed Catalyst training. They are not a state certification or license, and they do not replace employer-required training.
