Support

Because the micro-credential concept is still new to many educators, we know support is crucial for success. We’ve built our mCrED menu of support and service options to flex to the unique goals and needs of the districts. We aim to create the customized support plan you need. We team up with your districts and organizations in three phases.

EQUIP

Supports to equip organizations to build personalized professional learning systems through micro-credentials: 

  • Equipping organizations to personalize professional learning leveraging micro-credentials into an existing professional development (goals, plan design, implementation, impact).

  • Articulate next steps for continuing to advance the work within school, districts, and organizations;
