Micro-merits for lifelong learning

Purpose

RISE brings together and supports organisations in exploring the practical use of micro-credentials with the aim of strengthening organisations' skills development and learning. The overall goal is to work with participating organisations to highlight and practically apply the potential of micro-credentials for society, organisations and individuals.

RISE support for micro-merits extends over 12 months at a time and includes the following components and activities:

- Guidance and development support: We offer targeted support to develop the organisation's work with micro-credentials, skills provision and learning. Depending on the organisation's current situation, this may involve, for example, help in developing micro-credentials based on the organisation's needs or help in setting up a process for managing micro-credentials in the long term.

- Dialogue on research opportunities: Participate in discussions on current calls for proposals and research collaborations in skills development.

- Access to the Beta platform My Micro-credentials: Your organisation will have access to our system for creating, issuing and managing micro-credentials.

- Newsletters and insights: Get the latest insights and research news in skills development, including micro-credentials and other relevant perspectives from RISE.
