What Is a Micro-Credential?

What is a micro-credential?

A micro-credential covers one specific skill or area of practice — shorter and more targeted than a full program. Our online courses are designed as accessible starting points: practical, completable, and tied to the skills care employers look for. Many learners use them to test the water, fill a gap in what they know, or build confidence before committing to a full program.

  • Clear, focused learning outcomes for each course
  • Accessible online formats designed for real schedules
  • A natural complement to our practicum-based learning
