With rapid shifts in the job market becoming commonplace, graduate professionals have to be more resilient than ever to ensure they stay ahead of trends and keep their careers on an upward trajectory. This has given rise to the phenomenon of micro-credentialing, which allows swift, affordable upskilling, an education expert says. “Micro-credentialing is revolutionising how individuals break into new careers, offering flexible, targeted learning to acquire in-demand skills. Unlike traditional degrees, these shorter, focused courses or certifications allow professionals to upskill quickly in areas that are in high demand,” says Dingaan Moropane, deputy dean: academics at The IIE’s Rosebank College. For career changers, micro-credentials bridge the gap between current expertise and new opportunities, enabling rapid entry into emerging and high-growth fields without having to take a 3-year break to pursue fulltime studies. And as industries evolve, the micro-credentialing model empowers employees to stay competitive and to pivot with confidence, he explains.
