Micro-credentials in Ireland: Lessons learned and recommendations for German Higher Education Institutions

In Ireland, the project MicroCreds provides a framework for distributing and establishing micro-credentials. Earlier this year, a delegation sponsored by Hochschulforum Digitalisierung visited three universities in Dublin and one in Waterford to learn more about their system and how standards for using micro-credentials could be established in Germany.
