MICRO-CREDENTIALS

Our micro-credentials offer short, focused competency-based professional learning experiences that recognize educators for applying their skills in planning and/or implementing strategies to support student learning. They validate teachers' expertise and professional growth in creating aspects of a learning environment supporting students in their practice, knowledge building, and success through authentic applications. Upon successful completion, educators earn a badge for each micro-credential. Here is an outline of the micro-credentials we are currently offering:
