Microcredentials and the future of learning
The workshop will be an opportunity for policy-makers, social partners, stakeholders, experts and researchers from education and training, industry and beyond, to learn about the emerging role of microcredentials in supporting labour-market-related and employment-relevant education, training and learning, and share their experiences.
Participants will be presented the first insights of the current research during the plenary and interactive breakout sessions. The focus of the workshop will be on the diversity (profile and function) of microcredentials outside formal education and training, and the role of quality assurance and recognition in this context.
Discussions will also position the phenomenon of microcredentials in relation to specific labour market sectors and will touch upon the potential use and accessibility of microcredentials for social inclusion of end-users (notably disadvantaged groups or individuals).
