We are committed to empowering our higher education partners in strengthening their role in workforce education in their local economies and committed to our industry partners in working with them to create truly transformational learning products for their workforce. To meet the educational, sociological, and economic changes of the future, higher education and industry must work together to meet the needs of all learners, who are our future. Focus EduSolutions is changing the future of workforce education in America. ## What are Micro-Credentials? Micro-credentials and digital badges are the solutions needed to successfully chronicle students’ skills development and allow employers to understand and trust their technical and soft skills achievements. Micro-credentialing is a non-traditional learning pathway where students gain skill-sets in a specific technical area and receive a credential within a matter of weeks, serving both the student and the industry in a timely and affordable format. Focus EduSolutions designs credentials with our university and industry partners that provide experiential and application-based learning, with industry-specific standards. We use online simulations, case studies, various technologies, and a variety of assessment methods to ensure skills acquisition. Micro-credentials help industries to fill skills gaps, contribute to the growth of local economies and have become a tool to up-skill and re-skill the workforce. Benefits of Micro-Credentials Aligned to the Industry Cost Cost effective solution to high quality education Duration Runs 6-12 weeks Industry Driven Created by industry experts and endorsed by industry associations Pedagogy Self paced-asynchronous, application based, experiential labs, and webinars with industry experts ## We are Revolutionizing Workforce Readiness!

Micro-credentials are then created as a collaboration with the university and partnerships with the local and regional industries. Collaboration with Focus EduSolutions entails building a suite of college-branded micro-credentials and digital badges. These credentials are specifically customized to meet the up-skilling and re-skilling requirements of the workforce. ## How it Works Focus EduSolutions works with industry associations and subject matter experts to create education aligned with industry needs of today and work force demands of tomorrow.
