VIRTUAL WORKSHOP – SUNY Micro-Credentials

May 26, 2022 @ 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

Join us for a virtual workshop on Thursday, May 26, 2022, 11 AM – 12 PM

Microcredentials are smaller blocks of instruction and experiences—three courses, two courses and an internship, four courses and an industry certification, etc.—that can be completed in months, not years. Microcredentials verify that you have mastered in-demand, work-force ready skills and wherever possible, also put you on a flexible pathway to additional credentials. Aligned to New York State business and industry needs, SUNY microcredentials can be just the right fit for those looking to start or change jobs, adapt to new work responsibilities, upskill or earn a promotion.

This workshop is your introduction to high-quality microcredentials. You will explore examples of different types of microcredentials and also learn about “stackability,” applying credits from microcredentials toward satisfying the requirements of a certificate or degree. You will learn about digital badges that recognize microcredential completion and the new SUNY-wide microcredential directory. You’ll learn about the value that microcredentials add to your resume, showcasing your skills and helping you stand-out from the competition.

Join us to learn about the power of microcredentials; tools designed to meet you where you are and provide multiple pathways to career and academic success. Life moves fast…so can education.

For participants with disabilities, if you require any reasonable accommodations to participate in the event, please notify the Employee Development and Growth through Education (EDGE) Office at least 72 hours prior to the event at labor.sm.training@labor.ny.gov. The EDGE Office will make every reasonable effort to secure an accommodation that will meet your needs
