Quality Assurance Framework for Micro-credentials in Japan and in the Philippines
Micro-credentials in Japan and in the Philippines
Abstract
Micro-credential is gaining prominence among higher education institutions in the Asian region to provide opportunities for lifelong learning and to address the gap between industry needs and the skills of different professionals and skilled workers. This study aims to propose a quality assurance (QA) framework to ensure the quality of micro-credentials offered by three collaborating universities from Japan and Philippines. The proposed QA framework could be used to assess the quality of micro-credentials in terms of design, content, learning experiences, learning environment, and assessment. The framework could also be used to evaluate the implementation of micro-credentials by other higher education institutions.
