The certificate is only one part of the story.

The real story is the journey and courage it took to get there—the hard work, the challenges, the perseverance, and the people who stood beside you along the way.

We don’t just celebrate accomplishments.
We celebrate the people behind them.

And when your moment comes, we hope you’ll look back and know that we were honored to be part of your journey.

Your goals. Your journey. Your success. We’re here to help you get there.

Sometimes, it’s important to pause and remember why we do what we do. ❤️

This June, we had the privilege of celebrating our learners and their accomplishments at our Certificate Awards Ceremony.

Behind every certificate is a story — hard work, growth, perseverance, and a journey that brought each learner to this moment.

And for all of us who support them, these moments are a reminder of our purpose: to serve our learners, support their goals, and be part of their journey toward what comes next.

Their accomplishments are worth celebrating.
Their journeys are worth honoring.
And being a small part of those journeys is why we’re here. 🎓✨

Behind every successful campus is a community of people who care.

Yesterday, we took a moment to celebrate the staff who make UC Irvine such a special place. From shared laughs to unforgettable memories, the Staff Appreciation Picnic was a small way of saying something that can never be said enough:

Thank you.

Thank you for your dedication, your kindness, and everything you do to support our students, faculty, and one another. Here's to another amazing year together. 💙💛🐜

Your career, your responsibilities, your story---those are your credentials.

At DCE, we believe the life you've lived is what makes you ready for what's next. Our enrollment coaches work with learners like you who are juggling jobs, families, and everything in between. They understand and get it.

One of our learners shared a message that means a lot to us. "After a difficult first college experience, I wanted to make sure I got things right this time. My enrollment coach took the time to explain everything clearly and gave me the confidence to move forward."

Whether you want to meet in person, schedule a virtual call, or just send a quick email, our coaches are here to help you find the right path and take that next step with confidence.

Your life has prepared you for more than you think. Let's talk about what's next. Link in bio.

From English major to medical school applicant. From humanities grad to data scientist. Our post-bacc programs make the path possible. 💡 A post-baccalaureate (post-bacc) program lets you take undergraduate courses after graduation to build prerequisites, strengthen your academic record, or pivot into a new field WITHOUT needing a prior degree in it. UC Irvine's Division of Continuing Education offers three post-bacc certificate programs in Premedical Studies, Psychology, and Computational Language Science, each designed to help you reach your next goal.

The college admissions process has never been more complex, and that's reshaping the demand for a profession many people may not know much about---Independent Educational Consultants (IECs).

IECs help families research colleges, understand financial aid, identify the right academic fit, and navigate the admissions process from beginning to end. As higher education costs have climbed and competition for admission has intensified, families are increasingly seeking this kind of expert, personalized guidance.

Dr. Steven R. Antonoff has been practicing as an IEC in Denver since 1981 and serves on the Advisory Board for UC Irvine DCE's IEC Certificate Program. His take on the growth of the field:

"The demand for independent educational consultants continues to grow, and I believe that trend will only accelerate."

For those interested in entering the profession, UC Irvine's Division of Continuing Education offers the only University of California certificate program built exclusively for aspiring IEC professionals.
