Quality Assurance in Microcredentials

Technological advancements and digital transformation efforts are outpacing the rate at which students and workers can effectively supplement their education, upskill, or re-skill and demonstrate their new capabilities. Simultaneously, hiring managers need to have confidence in the skills candidates possess. That confidence can be earned through the obtaining of ABET Recognition of Credentials.

Join this webinar to learn about ways quality assured education is providing innovative approaches to building credentials, stretching beyond product knowledge, to prepare engineers to be ready for their next roles. Hear Siemens and ABET share how they are partnering to equip learners with quality assured competencies they need to thrive in a rapidly evolving landscape.
