Drexel CCI Introduces Micro‑Credentials Aligned with Employer‑Driven Skills - Drexel

With the rapid transformation of technology and the jobs that support the industry, Drexel’s College of Computing & Informatics has always been committed to providing its students with an education that prepares them to meet the challenges of this ever-changing workplace. To achieve this goal, CCI works closely with industry co-op partners to ensure that the college curriculum is constantly evolving to align with employer needs. As a result, CCI has developed a new Digital Badging Program that enables students to demonstrate proficiency in specific computing and informatics skills that are now prioritized by employers. Students who succeed will be awarded a Digital Badge — a micro-credential — that can be included on resumes and presented to employers.Karen DeVose, Ed.D, Assistant Dean for Academic Advising and Student Success, noted that “digital badges transform undergraduate learning into recognizable skills that open doors to opportunity. They make learning visible, meaningful, and marketable to employers.”
