Microcredentials: Understanding Financial Viability, Stackability, and Leveraging Employer Partnerships

Join us for a roundtable discussion to learn more about effectively leveraging microcredentials. Amidst the pressure to stand up new microcredential offerings, academic leaders should prioritize financial sustainability to ensure that they meet their financial goals in this chaotic space, whether seeking to use microcredentials as a revenue stream or just looking to break even while achieving mission-driven goals.

Session

In this roundtable, we will examine the current microcredentials landscape, profile tactics to ensure that microcredential offerings are aligned to market demand before launch, and share approaches to ongoing assessment of microcredential performance. We will also profile strategies to ensure that your microcredential programs simultaneously meet the needs of your university, the needs of students, and the needs of employers. We will share models for stackable microcredentials, academic policy changes necessary to support stackability, and ways institutions have successfully partnered with employers on microcredential efforts.
