    How to Think About Credential Innovation

    The credentialing ecosystem is evolving, with newer credentials like microcredentials and badges taking center stage. But, change is not synonymous with positive growth. As we transform the credentialing landscape, what should our rubric for success be?  In this episode, we speak with Simone Ravaioli, Director of Academic Innovation at Instructure. His work focuses on strategic initiatives that advance learner-centric recognition systems and global credential portability. We sat down to discuss the next generation of credentials, how we maximize value for learners, and where he sees opportunities for impactful change.
