A micro-credential is a recognition of learning awarded for the achievement of a small set of specific competencies. Micro-credentials are issued by academic institutions, corporations, and other training organizations in the form of digital badges.
A digital badge is a visual emblem that accompanies a micro-credential. Meta-data embedded within the badge identifies the issuing institution and details the competencies and evidence required to earn the badge.
Earners display their digital badges in digital backpacks or in professional social media sites, e-portfolios, and CVs.
As part of the Digital Learning Strategy, Seneca’s micro-credentials for faculty support professional development accomplishments and create pathways for ongoing learning. Our digital badges are evidence-based and encourage faculty to create relevant teaching artifacts and master applicable teaching skills. Badges can form an important part of the Faculty Portfolio and help foster Standards of Practice for faculty. Micro-credentials are a great way to showcase your expertise to colleagues across the college and beyond.
