Micro-Credentials & Open Educational Resources
INGENIUM Micro-Credentials for lifelong learning
The INGENIUM European University promotes open and lifelong learning by providing Micro-Credentials and open educational resources. INGENIUM Micro-Credentials will offered on our e-learning platform in 2025.
Micro-Credentials are integrated into the INGENIUM strategy to support student-centered learning, flexible education pathways, and innovative teaching methods. INGENIUM Micro-Credentials are designed to support lifelong learning, enhance the social dimension of higher education, and foster collaboration with societal actors.
We have established clear definitions and delivery modes for INGENIUM Micro-Credentials, including realigned, jointly developed, and decentralised models. You can learn more about these from the recording of our Webinar below. Robust quality assurance mechanisms have been created to ensure the credibility and transferability of Micro-Credentials across the Alliance.
Continuous Learning
Continuous learning and online learning are supported by high quality open access learning material. INGENIUM is committed to the openness of its learning provisions and recommends that high-quality learning material and educational resources are shared openly within the alliance and beyond.
INGENIUM has developed the Open Educational Resources platform and the Micro-Credentials e-Learning platform, which serve different functions in facilitating learning and knowledge transfer. A peer review practice developed in and by the INGENIUM European University guarantees the high quality of learning material.
In 2025, we will be updating this page with detailed instructions and guidance for content creators who wish to learn more about Micro-Credentials and how to produce them. In the meantime, you can get in touch with your local Innovation Leader.
