Demystifying Credentials

Few realise the profound changes that a focus on professional capabilities and resulting micro-credentials have made both to global education and recognition of individual expertise.

In September 2016 Dr Marcus Bowles presented his industry white paper at DeakinDigital and examined the opportunities and results from a decade long effort to effectively assess, recognise and credential human capability across all workforces and levels of work.

Dr Marcus Bowles is the Director and Chair of The Institute for Working Futures and a strategic consultant to DeakinDigital. His main focus is on building the people and strategic capability required to achieve desired futures. Dr Bowles is also Professor, Adjunct – Centre for Regional and Rural Futures, Deakin University.
