Global Dialogue on Micro-Credentials: Initiatives and Perspectives on Small Learning Units from around the World
In the European Higher Education Area the discussion of micro-credentials has steadily gained momentum over the past year – culminating in the presentation of the European Commission’s proposal for a Council Recommendation on micro-credentials for lifelong learning and employability. With Europe due to take an important regulatory step to increase transparency and foster a common understanding of micro-credentials across Higher Education Institutions and across sectors, the seminar within the framework of the DAAD project bologna hub focused on the global perspectives on Europe’s harmonization efforts and explored with HE representatives of other world regions what challenges remain for the further uptake of these small learning units.
Inspired by the Global Policy Dialogue of the Bologna Process, the event aimed at enriching the ongoing discussion on micro-credentials by taking a distinctly global approach. The panel discussions included speakers from all world regions and the breakout sessions highlighted various good practice examples and micro-credential initiatives from the Asia/Pacific region, Africa and the Americas.
