What are Microcredentials?

Microcredentials are academic or professional credentials that focus on specific skills and knowledge rather than encompassing a complete educational program like degrees. Rather, microcredentials allow you to demonstrate the skills acquired from start to finish in an extensive program. These credentials are smaller in scale and are also awarded for completing a defined set of courses, training, or experience in a particular area. They are often used to validate the acquisition of specific skills in a given field.
