"We're proud to establish ICAD and bring a convenient, innovative professional learning experience to career advisors and other professionals," said Connor Harrington, Kuder CEO.

ICAD offers a range of professional development courses that cover career development theories, research, and practice. These courses provide effective strategies to enhance perspective, delivery, and expertise in career advising.
Individuals can now enroll in 11 distinct courses in multiple formats including individual micro-credentials on specific topics to credentialing programs encompassing a wider skillset.
