Micro-credentials

A student working at a laptop from the comfort of their home.

Our Micro-credentials courses are short, accredited learning experiences that allow you to study flexibly and choose modules to suit your own professional development or skills needs. Micro-credentials are typically short in duration, time commitment and are usually 5, 10 or 15 credits. 

 

They are an ideal way to return to education, upskill in a new area, or further develop skills in a flexible manner.

 

ATU is delighted to receive part-funded places on 40+ of our Micro-credentials' courses through the newly released HCI Pillar 3 Micro-Credentials Learner Fee Subsidy initiative in higher education.
