Register Now! EDEH – “Micro-credentialing Readiness: Conditions for Maturity and Impact”, April 24 at 14:00 (CET)

An item from our European colleagues.  While not unfriendly to K-12 distance, online, and/or blended learning, there also isn’t a lot of activity – so often not a lot of focus on this population from EDEN.

The European Digital Education Hub (EDEH) is an initiative of the European Commission, funded by the Erasmus+ programme (2021-2027) and operated by a consortium of eleven organisations, under a service contract with the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA).

EDEN Digital Learning Europe Knowledge Building team is actively contributing to this Hub.

Monthly innovative events are organised to discover and debate which are the current and future challenges of the digital transformation of education.

Micro-credentialing Readiness: Conditions for Maturity and Impact

Wednesday April 24 (14:00 – 15:30 CET)

The aim of the event is to discuss the building movement of micro-credentialing in  education, training and labour, linked with the European Approach to Microcredentials for Lifelong Learning and Employability. The focus will be placed on institutional readiness and conditions for reaching maturity and impact.

The goal is to contribute to a European level conversation examining the conditions and drivers required for successful adoption, implementation and widespread impact across the European education and training sectors. The conversation will also consider ‘what’s next’ in 2024 and beyond and contribute dialogue to a consensus-driven approach for micro-credentialing maturity and impact.
