How Do Micro-credentials Work?

Micro-credentials are a form of micro-certification earned by proving competence in one specific skill at a time, via a portfolio of evidence, created through classroom practice. Individual micro-credentials also form the basis for a cohesive system of skills that enable educators to grow and advance throughout their careers.

BloomBoard has created a comprehensive system of educator competencies (micro-credentials) based on widely accepted instructional standards such as InTASC and PSEL. Micro-credentialing is a scalable approach to improving instructional practice across schools and districts.

All micro-credentials offered on BloomBoard have a clearly defined purpose of achieving verified improvement in instructional practice, and also provide the building blocks for professional growth.
