Digital Learning Initiative Micro-Credentials Session
By Invitation Only
As schools and districts shift to providing a more personalized learning experience for their students, they are also being increasingly asked to provide the same type of experience for their educators. Micro-credentials are one strategy that schools and district leaders are using to meet this need.
Participants will have an opportunity to:
- EXPERIENCE different approaches to micro-credentials and leverage these approaches to design a system of micro-credentials for educators in their districts;
- EVALUATE ways in which micro-credentials can be used to support and enhance professional capacity building (face-to-face and online) for job-embedded implementation of the DLCs;
- DEVELOP protocols and standards for effective implementation of micro-credentials;
- ASSESS how DLCs can fit into your unique micro-credentialing needs;
- DEVELOP a communication plan and clear expectations for implementation with a focus on changing mindsets about what professional learning should look like;
- IMPLEMENT or plan for the implementation of a pilot of micro-credentials that support your LEA’s needs;
- DESIGN micro-credential pathway(s) for professional capacity building;
- DEVELOP solutions and communications to empower, encourage, recognize, and reward staff using micro-credentials.
- EXPLORE and DESIGN to scale your system of micro-credentialing.
