How EuroTeQ Micro-Credentials work?
European Commission’s requirements
Micro-credential is a record of the learning outcomes that a learner has acquired following a small volume of learning. These learning outcomes have been assessed against transparent and clearly defined standards. Courses leading to micro-credentials are designed to provide the learner with specific knowledge, skills and competences that respond to societal, personal, cultural or labor market needs.
EuroTeQ micro-credentials are offered in English.
The micro-credentials are mostly online. Some may be offered in hybrid or blended form.
Awarded ECTS (2-9, ideally 5-6) depend on the specific workload.
All EuroTeQ partners offer selected micro-credentials for EuroTeQ students and professionals.
European collaboration behind our Micro-Credentials
Building on the established collaboration within the EuroTeQ Alliance, the Erasmus+ Micro-Credentials project develops and tests new learning offers with a particular focus on skills for the green and digital transition. The project strengthens the Alliance’s long-term work on lifelong learning and contributes to the further development of Micro-Credentials across EuroTeQ.
