Whitepapers and Guidelines for a Strategy Workshop

The European Maturity Model for Micro-credentials guides higher education institutions in implementing the EU Council Recommendation on micro-credentials. This comprehensive resource covers business models, technology requirements and quality assurance frameworks. The model includes three whitepapers examining how universities can develop sustainable micro-credential strategies, implement necessary technical infrastructure including the European Learning Model, and ensure quality through appropriate standards. A structured workshop format helps senior management assess institutional readiness and create implementation strategies. By addressing lifecycle management, authentication, portability and stakeholder collaboration, the model supports universities in offering flexible, recognised learning pathways that meet evolving workforce and societal needs.
