Micro-Credentials

A Micro-Credential from Post University Can Help You Stand Out from the Crowd!

 

You Could Help Your Personal and Professional Skills Stand Out with Career-Building Micro-credentials

At Post University, we mean it when we say we make education personal. From concentrations to online learning options, we go beyond typical degree programs to help you explore e opportunities to customize your education to your goals—personally and professionally.

That’s where a FOCUSED micro-credential could make a  difference, even beyond your degree.

 

What Is a Micro-Credential?

Micro-credentials are efficient and effective ways that could assist you with developing  new skills and provide resume-ready proof of your new capabilities. Often completed as part of your current course work, they are both the skill and the validation of mastering that skill. That validation—whether as a digital badge, massive open online course (MOOC), or micro-award—can be added to professional profiles to help new graduates and aspiring professionals stand out.

Micro-credentials come in a variety of forms—from specialized technical skills (such as Google Analytics, FEMA Logistics, or CompTIA IT Fundamentals) to professional skills that transcend career fields, such as emotional intelligence or conflict resolution. In other words, many of these learning experiences could be combined to meet more advanced certificate requirements down the line.

Whether you are a student or a busy working professional, a micro-credential could assist you to  reinforce a skill, make a career switch, or simply satisfy your curiosity. On campus or online, micro-credentials are a fast-paced option to build relevant skills and meet goals that could give you an advantage when competing with others in your career field.
