Brandt, Anthony – Creativity Research Journal, 2021

Williams, Candace – New England Board of Higher Education, 2020
The growth in the number of types and providers of credentials has much to do with new conceptions of the "currency" of higher education. Students and employers are placing more value on the skills, competencies and knowledge a learner obtains, rather than on credit hours, seat-time or degrees. Alternative credentials and credential…
