European Digital Micro-Credentials – A Strategic Direction for German Higher Educational Institutions
Digital credentials in general, and micro-credentials more narrowly, are increasingly vital, trusted tools for higher education institutions as they adapt to the demands of life-long learners and the evolving labour market. Their implementation is proving to be advantageous in learning recognition, student mobility, employability, and institutional efficiency. To understand the terminology and state of play at a European level, and how European Digital Credentials for Learning (EDC) can provide a framework for enhancing educational offerings for German Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), we contacted Ildiko Mazar and Kia Likitalo from the European Learning Model (ELM) Support team.
