The Training Material at hand ought to motivate and enable you to
design your MicroCredential-course
aligned with the features of a European MicroCredential
based on a Virtual Learning Environment.
It is composed of three units and will guide you as HE teachers through
the process of describing learning offers in digital space,
using MicroCredential descriptors,
so that your students are issued with the new concept of digital credentials (= MicroCredentials)
to transparently get their achievements to be recognised by other HEIs and employers.
After all, competences acquired in this course, combined with the implementation of the new learning, are supposed to help educators to utilise digital MicroCredentials as a means to support the principles of learning outcome recognition and ECTS transfer among the European Higher Education Area (EHEA).
The competence model of this course is DigCompEdu and the EdDiCo Learning maturity Model.
Where do you stand?
