Enhancing the Undergraduate Experience Through the Use of Industry-Recognized Credentials

The University of Texas System’s Texas Credentials for the Future initiative offers access to industry-recognized credentials to help learners gain the skills they will need to be successful in the world of work. This presentation will highlight the partnerships that the University of Texas System established with companies like Google and Coursera as well as philanthropic organizations like the Strada Education Foundation to support this initiative. Some initial data about the project will also be shared in addition to upcoming data gathering and analysis strategies that will be implemented to evaluate the impact of the overall project.
