    Overview

    About Micro-credentialing at Lewis University

    are digital representations of your learning, designed so that you can share the skills you’ve gained. Micro-credentials, while not a replacement for certificates, minors, or degree programs, are a supplemental designation to provide evidence that you are working towards mastering critical 21st century competencies.

    Micro-Credentials Badge

    Our Micro-credential program allows students to gain relevant skills that enable them to distinguish themselves, academically and professionally.聽 A digital badge is a type of Micro-credential that allows students to show specific skills that they have gained through coursework or other formal learning experiences at Lewis. They are dynamic credentials that can be shared in social networks and professional contexts, including LinkedIn, resumes, e-portfolios and more.

    A digital badge is an icon but it is not a static image. It is clickable and houses information such as the issuing institution, the date earned, the criteria required to earn the badge and the evidence that shows that a student has met the required criteria.

    Lewis has historically offered certificate programs and Continuing Education Units (CEU) to students and other constituencies.聽 This Micro-credential program enables programs to offer pre-existing certificates, program, and CEUs as digital badges.

    Whether you are a recent alum, a member of the larger community, or Lewis faculty, staff or student, you can find a Micro-credential through programming designed to meet your specific needs related to re-skilling or up-skilling for continued professional success.
