What We Do

Credentials Unlimited’s mission is to provide cost effective micro-credentials for teachers and administrators that are focused on the Science of Reading and Structured Literacy.  The micro-credentials are aligned to relevant practice standards in the appropriate educational field.  Earning a micro-credential assures that teachers have demonstrated a high level of competency in discrete educational skills. 

Why Micro-credentials?

As the world evolves, so must our approach to education.  Enter micro-credentials: the innovative solution that  promises to bridge the gap between academic qualifications and real world skills, ushering in a new era of personalized, relevant, and flexible learning.

Micro-credentials offer short, focused learning experiences designed to equip individuals with specific skills or competencies. These credentials are earned through targeted courses, workshops, and assessments that provide tangible evidence of a person’s mastery in a particular area.  Unlike the traditional degree structure, which can take years to complete, micro-credentials can be earned in weeks or months.  This agility is a game changer, enabling individuals to upskill in response to educational needs or personal goals.

Customization: Learners can choose micro-credentials that align with their career goals and interests, allowing them to build a personalized learning path. This customization can lead to more meaningful and relevant learning experiences.

Credential Validation: Micro-credentials provide tangible evidence of a person's proficiency in a specific skill. This can be beneficial for job seekers, as it allows them to demonstrate their abilities to potential employers, enhancing their employability.

Continuous Learning: Micro-credentials encourage a culture of continuous learning. Professionals can regularly update their skills and knowledge without committing to lengthy educational programs, helping them stay competitive in their fields.

Cost-Effectiveness: Micro-credentials are generally more affordable than traditional degrees. Individuals can invest in targeted learning without the financial burden of a full degree program.
