Digital Promise has designed a framework to guide the development of each micro-credential. This framework ensures that each micro-credential:
Once educators have selected micro-credentials they wish to earn, they develop the required evidence and submit it through the online platform. Each micro-credential requires evidence such as:
An expert reviewer or educator who has already earned this micro-credential will review the evidence using the rubric and scoring guide in the micro-credential and provide feedback. If the educator has successfully demonstrated their competence, they will be awarded the micro-credential in the form of a digital badge. This badge can be shared with administrators or colleagues. Should the educators’ evidence not demonstrate competence, the educator will receive feedback and be invited to try again.
To power our micro-credential system, Digital Promise has partnered with BloomBoard, a leading professional development platform for empowering educator growth. Educators can begin exploring and applying for micro-credentials on the Bloomboard website.
