Download this book
Book Description: This toolkit aims to support micro-credential practitioners – members of the B.C. post-secondary community who are developing and offering stand-alone, short duration learning experiences that are competency-based, align with industry, employer, community and/or Indigenous community needs and can be assessed and recognized for employment or learning purposes. The toolkit compiles knowledge, resources, templates, and experiences from the sector to support the community. It also proposes lists of questions that practitioners can explore in laying down a solid foundation in their context. Each self-contained chapter covers one aspect of offering micro-credentials, from sustainable budgeting strategy, to partnerships in and out of the institution, to governance and quality assurance, to forging educational pathways to connect micro-credentials to further educational opportunities in the system.
