CETL On-Demand Webinars and Other Micro-Credentials

Kennesaw State University uses micro-credentials as a digital recognition of achievement for completion of professional development in a specific field or skill. At KSU, there are four levels of micro-credentials: Souvenirs, Level I Badges, Level II Badges, and Digital Certificates. Levels are distinguished by the work required to earn the credential. Each KSU micro-credential undergoes a review by the university-level Micro-Credential Committee for alignment with KSU standards. Micro-credentials are awarded and maintained in Badgr where you can view your record of earned badges as well as all KSU micro-credentials available.

For faculty, micro-credentials are a way to demonstrate and catalog professional development. CETL currently offers the following micro-credentials for KSU faculty, graduate students, and postdocs. Check back often as we continue to add available micro-credentials.
