The Rise and Future of Microcredentials in Higher Education | BestColleges
-
Microcredentials are short, stackable, and skills-based non-degree credentials. -
Researchers estimated a 95% increase in the availability of microcredential programs between 2021 and 2022.Note Reference [1] -
Popular microcredential providers include EdX, Coursera, LinkedIn, Udacity, and many four-year colleges and universities. -
Companies looking to upskill their workforces in a period of rapid digital transformation may turn to microcredentials as a solution.
- Enter the concept of microcredentials: short, stackable, non-degree credits that help learners build competencies and show off their skills to employers.
- Microcredentials are gaining popularity among employers — who need to rapidly train employees in emerging fields — and among career climbers who want to advance in the workforce in a timely and cost-effective way.
- Microcredentials are short learning modules
- Often, students can stack, combine, or bundle microcredentials to demonstrate subject mastery.
- Short: You can earn a microcredential in less time than a degree. For example, Oregon State University's microcredentials consist of 9-12 credits. A full bachelor's degree is 180 credit
- Stackable: You can collect microcredentials or digital badges to demonstrate more advanced skills. For example, the University of Central Oklahoma offers microcredential bundles in computer science, diversity and inclusion, and more subjects. And at SUNY Broom Community College, you can apply credits earned in a web development microcredential toward an associate degree in web development.
- Skills-Based: By the end of the program, you should be able to demonstrate a specific competency or ability, like viral content creation, machine learning for business, or classroom management for educators
- The European Commission has offered a clear definition for microcredentials, stating that they represent
records of learning outcomes that a learner has acquired following a small volume of learning, which is assessed against transparent and clearly defined criteria
- In other words, for a course of study to qualify as a microcredential, it must meet a certain quality standard and provide proof that students learned something.
