Material Detail

The AACRAO  Alternative Credentials Work Group released a report today on campus guidelines and best practices for alternative credentials, primarily micro-credentials and certificates, and specifically to:

• create broader awareness among institutions of higher education of micro-credentials and certificates.
• create future consistency and meaning of these credentials by providing definitions and parameters.
• establish best practices in the offering and issuance of alternative credentials so that their portability and acceptance is maximized for the learner.
• identify the considerations an institution should have of launching and maintaining a successful micro-credential initiative or program.
• highlight the important role the registrar (and admissions officers) can/should play in their campus micro-credential initiatives/programs.
