CARICOM underscores importance of micro-credentials to regional development - Editor-JB, St. Kitts and Nevis Observer

“First, the Caribbean is undergoing profound economic and social transformation – driven by digitalisation, climate vulnerability, shifting labour markets, and evolving global value chains. “Second, our education and training systems must respond with greater agility, inclusivity, and relevance if we are to equip our people – not only for jobs, but for life, resilience, and regional progress.” She said it is within this context that micro-credentials assume strategic importance in the CARICOM region, adding that it offers the region a pathway to rethink how learning is designed, delivered, recognized, and valued. “For a region such as ours – with diverse education systems, varying access challenges, and significant informal and non-traditional learning – this is not simply an innovation. It is a necessity. “They are also highly relevant to one of the most pressing challenges facing our region – climate change.”
