Navigating Obstacles on a Microcredential Journey
The WCET Steering Committee work group on microcredentials highlighted some of the key findings in the recent WCET + EDUCAUSE quick poll survey about microcredentials. The discussion leader facilitated a conversation about the potential potholes with a microcredential initiative and solutions to avoid bumps and navigate successfully around obstacles.
Attendees discussed:
- Skills assessments and microcredentials.
- Funding models and financial aid policies.
- Vocabulary and alignment.
- Identifying the why and the who—who are you serving and who should be involved?
