Background: What are Micro-Credentials?

Micro-credentials serve as proof of competences acquired in shorter, modular learning units and are becoming increasingly important in the context of lifelong learning and a dynamically changing labour market. Their visibility, accessibility and impact are to be strengthened throughout Europe through joint utilisation and promotion within the CHARM-EU alliance.
