You will explore examples of different types of microcredentials and also learn about “stackability\,” applying credits from microcredentials toward satisfying the requirements of a certificate or degree. You will learn about digital badges that recognize microcredential completion and the new SUNY-wide microcredential directory. You’ll learn about the value that microcredentials add to your resume\, showcasing your skills and helping you stand-out from the competition. \nJoin us to learn about the power of microcredentials; tools designed to meet you where you are and provide multiple pathways to career and academic success. Life moves fast…so can education. \nFor participants with disabilities\, if you require any reasonable accommodations to participate in the event\, please notify the Customer Engagement unit at least 72 hours prior to the event at virtualworkshops@labor.ny.gov.
