Cedefop report looks at the role of micro-credentials in supporting learning for employment
Cedefop has published a report which analyses the role of micro-credentials in the European labour market and how they are supporting learning for employment. The report presents how micro-credentials have gained relevance in European-level policy debates. Although there is uncertainty linked to the naming and function of micro-credentials, there are notable advantages towards their versatility and responsiveness to the requirements of the labour market. The research builds on surveys with different stakeholders, country case studies, interviews, and Cedefop’s ReferNet network. The second report on ‘Micro-credentials and evolving qualifications systems’ is expected to be published by the end of 2022.
