To Badge or Not to Badge: A Micro-Credentialing Conversation
Category
Session
Description
Micro-credentials and digital badges are being explored and implemented on many campuses. These programs promote faculty innovation and provide students with a credential to communicate additional skills and knowledge. They also can help attract new students, increase student engagement, and promote work force development. Because they fall outside of traditional curricula, they pose challenges to structures, policies and processes. Learn how one campus is implementing micro-credential programs.
