Learning On Demand: Designing High-impact Micro-credentials for Victoria's Digital Economy
Wednesday, January 25, 2023 (4:00 PM - 6:30 PM) (PST)
Description
In the fast-moving digital economy, lifelong learning is a must. Micro-credentials provide unique opportunities for learners to gain or upgrade their skills, often at their own pace.
The Information and Communications Technology Council (ICTC) is leading research that is part of a multi-sector initiative to define, develop, and validate a micro-credential framework. ICTC and VIATEC invite Victoria digital economy employers to get together and discuss micro-credentials, including how they can be designed and deployed to serve real-life labour market needs.
