Resource speakers from University of the Philippines- Diliman and Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology (NEUST), members of the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) technical working group on Lifelong Learning, provided expert guidance on developing and institutionalizing micro-credentials in higher education.

The workshop equipped PSU faculty and program chairs to design flexible, outcomes-based, and industry-aligned micro-credential courses guided by CHED Memorandum Order No. 1, s. 2025. Sessions covered policy alignment, outcomes writing, course outlines and learning maps, assessment tools and proposal development, with hands-on activities and presentations for feedback.

This initiative strengthens PSUโ€™s readiness to implement micro-credentials anchored on quality, inclusivity, sustainability and partnershipsโ€”building a future-ready, globally competitive learning ecosystem. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›
