Microcredentials - the building blocks to success

Anyone serious about success should invest in professional development. But signing up for a postgraduate course doesn’t work for everyone. That’s why we’re reinventing education with a game-changing alternative.

Micro might mean small. But microcredentials offer a big opportunity to sharpen skills and accelerate professional development. Each block (a module from our extensive portfolio) has the same content taught by the same leading academics as our full postgraduate degrees.

View our online catalogue of microcredentials.

• Pick modules from different academic disciplines or specialise in one without committing to a full postgraduate programme.
• Fit your learning around your life and work commitments with options to study on campus and online.

Microcredentials are designed for professionals in both public and private sectors who want to develop their careers. Perhaps you want to strengthen your skillset or maybe you want to make the move into a new area.

This pioneering alternative will be a great fit for you if you don’t want to commit to a full degree programme or if you have interests across academic fields. The possibilities will depend on the modules you pick, making this a truly individual learning journey.

You’ll find everything you need to know about entry requirements on each module web page. Typical entry requirements are:

• A 2.2 honours degree or international equivalent
• A CV and personal statement outlining your reasons for study
• Evidence of English language proficiency at the level set by the relevant faculty

For some modules, you might need to meet additional criteria.
