KSU LEADS NATION IN MICRO-CREDENTIALS. HERE’S HOW IT’S CHANGING LINKEDIN PROFILES IN YOUR NETWORK - Maija Ehlinger, Hypepotemus

Micro-credentialing has become a key part of the continuing education space. Young professionals, career transition candidates, and those scouring job boards for new positions have used the smaller courses to level up a specific skill.  Unlike a full degree track, micro-credentials are short-form, competency-based badges designed to showcase someone’s mastery in a hyper-specific subject.  Georgia’s own Kennesaw State University is leading the charge to make it easier for students and professionals to market their skills through such credentials. Those in the KSU network can use credentials to verify new skills on their resumes and LinkedIn profiles.  KSU recently earned national recognition by the University Professional and Continuing Education Association for its work in the alternative credentialing space.
