MicroCredentials

MicroCredentials are a stackable, flexible and agile way to learn, enabling learners to undertake individual modules at different levels to upskill or further their professional development. They will also contribute to Ireland’s flourishing lifelong learning participation rates. We are delighted to offer a range of Level 9 Sustainability MicroCredential options, including:

• 5-Credit, 10-Credit or 30-Credit options
• Online and Blended study modes

In 2023, Sustainable Futures launched three MicroCredentials from our flagship Postgraduate Certificate in Sustainability in Enterprise programme. The content of these MicroCredentials has been informed by Sustainable Futures enterprise and industry partners, and students will leave with a toolkit of practical skills on how to embed sustainability in their organisation. Each MicroCredential is a Level 9, 10-credit module delivered fully online by UCC or by one of our Sustainable Futures partner institutions (Maynooth University and Atlantic Technological University Sligo). The MicroCredentials are stackable towards the PG Cert qualification.
