The federal government is planning to set up a micro-credentials marketplace to help prospective students navigate which course would be best for their needs. Announced in 2020, it will provide a nationally consistent platform to compare course outcomes, duration, mode of delivery and credit point value. Commenting at the launch, then Minister for Employment, Skills, Small and Family Business Michaelia Cash said: “The marketplace will provide consistency that gives students and businesses the assurance they need to invest in this new mode of education.” The Universities Admissions Centre (UAC) has announced that it has won an Australian government grant to build the nation’s first marketplace for micro-credentials.
