Webinar: Designing Skills-Based Microcredentials to Meet Industry Needs 1920 1080 IEEE Credentialing Program

The IEEE Microcredentials Webinar Series explores how skills-based credentials are reshaping the workforce and education landscape. Our second webinar, Designing Skills-Based Microcredentials to Meet Industry Needs, discusses the roadmap for designing skills-based microcredentials that are immediately relevant and trusted by employers.

Key Takeaways

  • Align with industry. The key to creating skills-based microcredentials that fill critical workforce gaps is to collaborate with industry before starting the design process. 
  • Define the need. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to creating microcredentials for industry. Needs will vary based on sector, company size, and geography. 
  • Use a flexible framework. A flexible skills-based framework allows organizations to tailor credentials for individual companies and adapt programs quickly as technology evolves.
