As part of our robust, on-demand micro-credential ecosystem, we are proud to partner with organizations to provide pathways for personalized learning. These research-backed micro-credentials are digital certifications that verify an individual’s competence in a specific skill or set of skills, regardless of where and how they learned them. Over the last two months, we’ve launched 17 micro-credentials from our partners, and the ecosystem is growing every day.

Micro-credentials launched in August and SeptemberIllustration of Friday Institute micro-credential

The Friday Institute at North Carolina State University added a micro-credential on Self-Awareness to its Learner Variability stack. This micro-credential focuses on leveraging students’ strengths to support them with challenges related to self-awareness. It also shares strategies and tools for educators, including the Learner Variability Navigator.

UWCSEA is one of the longest-established K-12 international schools in Singapore. Planning for concept-based teaching and learning is designed around transferable conceptual understandings, providing an effective way to develop students’ critical, creative, and reflective thinking.
