"Every Missourian empowered with the skills and education need for success."

Missouri Department of Higher Education & Workforce Development seeks to realize this vision not only by providing opportunities for training and education, but by making those opportunities accessible and attainable for all Missourians. This includes our efforts to facilitate the transfer of earned course credits from one institution to another.
