What is a Microcredential?
A microcredential is a short program that quickly allows you to gain relevant skills that are needed in today’s workforce.
Microcredentials are often structured in groups of three to five courses that can be taken alone or can eventually be “stacked” to earn a degree or certificate. They are designed to help you quickly develop relevant skills to prepare for entry-level employment or per-diem work and can help you gain additional training to advance your career if you are already employed.
SUNY Oneonta’s microcredentials can help you bridge the gap between college and a career, giving you a competitive edge before completing a degree program.
