Start small, achieve big.

Our Learning Design microcredentials offer a perfect introduction before pursuing larger study commitments.

 

A microcredential is a formally assessed single piece of learning that provides verified recognition of acquired skills and knowledge in a specific area, and that aligns to a subject within a UTS postgraduate course.

 

If you successfully complete any of the courses in this program, you may receive recognition of prior learning (RPL) against the relevant subject should you subsequently go on to study the Graduate Certificate in Learning Design.
