Micro-credentials

Each micro-credential is worth 1 ECTS. This means 25-30 hours of total workload, including online classes plus individual studying, for 4-6 weeks. Each class lasts 2 hours.

To be eligible for this programme, you need to be a Bachelor student (first cycle student) at one of EU- CONEXUS universities and have at least B2 level of English. You can certify your level of English by submitting an English certificate (IELTS, TOEFL, CEFR or equivalent) or any document that will be a proof of your level. If you do not have any official certificate, you will be asked to fill in an online English Placement Test and upload the certificate.

There are 3 possible itineraries of the certificates:

• Individual. Take 1 micro-credential and you will get a certificate of that specific micro-credential delivered by the host university.
• Interdisciplinary. Take 6 micro-credentials – one from each of the sectors – and you will receive a certificate of Micro-credentials in SmUCS.
• Expertise. Take 6 micro-credentials – all from one same sector, and you will receive a certificate of Micro-credentials in that specific sector.

Check out the Guidelines for students to learn more about the specifics of micro-credentials for Bachelor students and rules of the programme.

Details of all micro-credentials may be found in the Micro-credentials catalogue. Each micro-credential is assigned to one sector and thematic area its content covers. Thematic areas were created basing on consultations with experts and students, as well as discussions within EU-CONEXUS partner universities.

• You can apply to and enrol in up to 3 micro-credentials per semester.
