Microcredentials are now widely recognised

Microcredentials are now widely recognised as a legitimate pathway to learning, plus validating specialised skills and competencies.

Microcredentials are used by many major private and public sector organisations, plus career-focused people throughout the world covering:

  • Short courses on-site or online
  • Boot camps – short intensive learning experiences, often associated with information technology or entrepreneurship opportunities
  • Digital badges earned for achievement or participation in short learning events
  • Licences and certifications.

Major benefits of microcredentials include:

  • Allowing workers to select and personalise their learning
  • Aligning learning with an individual’s immediate or longer-term career goals
  • Ensuring learning meets employers’ expectations and industry needs
  • The opportunity to explore new subject areas and skills
  • Flexible delivery and shorter time commitment
  • More learning providers locally and globally to choose from
  • Capacity to integrate into career pathways and larger education credentials

As the value and integrity of a university degree decline, employers are looking for candidates that demonstrate excellent people and team skills over a basic degree.

Microcredentials show an employer an ongoing commitment to learning and development, plus a motivated mindset to be your very best.

The major attractions of microcredentials are that they are cheap, high quality, completed online at your convenience and provide a certificate of completion to validate your learnings.

In some aspects, it may also bypass the need for a long term study university degree and associated student loan debts.
