The government is to introduce a National Micro-Credentials Framework that will apply to the education, higher education and vocational education sectors. Micro-credentials are short, flexible and verifiable learning certifications that prove mastery of specific skills or competencies. Unlike traditional degrees, they focus on narrow, in demand topics, allowing professionals to upskill or reskill quickly without the time or financial commitment of a full degree programme. “Currently, we are formulating a micro-credential framework. We believe we can implement this scheme within this year,” Deputy Education Minister Madhura Senevirathna said.
