SUMMARY:Micro-credentials and Flexible Learning Pathways
DESCRIPTION:This panel is conceived as a focused policy-and-practice conversation on micro-credentials and flexible learning pathways as emerging instruments for lifelong learning, reskilling, upskilling, and European educational mobility.\nRather than treating micro-credentials in purely promotional terms, the discussion is designed to examine the conditions under which they can become credible, flexible, and socially meaningful learning arrangements across higher education, vocational education and training (VET), continuing professional development, and labour-market-oriented learning.\nThe overall aim is to position micro-credentials within a wider architecture of lifelong learning, connecting universities, VET providers, employers, professional bodies, and public policy, while retaining academic credibility, public trust, social purpose, and meaningful learner progression.\nCore discussion axes\n\nMicro-credentials as complementary instruments within degree systems, continuing education, and lifelong learning strategies.\nQuality assurance, certification, recognition, transparency, and portability across institutional and national settings.\nFlexible and stackable learning pathways: how short-form learning may connect to broader qualifications and progression routes.\nMicro-credentials in VET, continuing education, and labour-market learning: responsiveness to sectoral change, employability, and re/upskilling needs.\nAccess and inclusion: the possible value of micro-credentials for adult learners, working learners, career changers, and other non-traditional participants.\nInstitutional and policy challenges: sustainability, trust, fragmentation, and the relationship between flexibility and academic standards.\n\n \n \n \n
