Technology Enhanced Learning & Digital Learning Design -Microcredential

This short, online course covers one module, allowing you to focus on one specific aspect of technology enhanced learning while also providing a pathway to further qualifications in this area at NCI. The following microcredentials are currently available through our School of Business and Social Sciences.

Candidates will be learning professionals working in further education and training, adult and corporate learning sectors or similar. For participation on the Level 9 microcredential, applicants holding an Honours Degree 2.2 (Level 8) in any discipline, ideally with professional involvement in the facilitation of learning or training, will be considered. For applicants whose first language is not English, please note the English language entry requirements. The College operates a Recognition of Prior Experiential Learning (RPEL) scheme meaning applicants who do not meet the normal academic requirements will be considered based on relevant work and other experience. Applicants may be interviewed by the Programme Director or member of the programme team. Technology/Participation Requirements Participants should have the ability to use ICT independently to find information, create and manage files, and communicate with others. For online sessions, participants will require administrator access to a personal computing device such as a laptop or desktop computer running Windows or MacOS (tablets are not appropriate) with a reliable internet connection of >1mbps, web browser software (i.e. internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari or Chrome), Flash Player, a headset with built-in microphone, and a webcam. It is the responsibility of each student to ensure their computer is functioning correctly and that they have full administrator rights. NCI IT cannot provide support for these personal devices. A Laptop Loan Scheme is available for eligible students to assist them in completing their chosen course. See page 83 for more information.
