Using Stackable Micro-Credentials for Innovative Faculty Development
Channel: eCampusOntario
Date: 20/03/2023

Using flexible, stackable micro-credentials has changed the culture of faculty engagement with respect to outcomes, pedagogical approaches and assessment practices by using a set of more than 85 intentionally designed 6-hour courses that build towards a college certificate in post-secondary teaching. The presenters will draw on their experience with micro-credential development and faculty support at the college to identify the key factors and processes that have contributed to the appeal of this program to part-time and full-time faculty and external audiences. The session will include opportunities to review the programs, discuss challenges and wins, and reflect on applicability to other institutions.
