As organizations continue to look to technology and online education to enhance and expand learning opportunities, the demand for professionals skilled in instructional design continues to increase. The Learning Experience Design MicroCred consists of a series of five courses that guides participants through the course design and development process.
This program focuses on instructional design theories, frameworks, tools, and practical applications to develop effective and high quality learning experiences on digital platforms. This program is designed for new and experienced instructional designers, faculty, multimedia specialists, and those who support online course design and development in their organizations (K–12 education, higher education, corporate training, or related organizations).
Each MicroCred program is made up of two to six individual courses. Successful completion of all courses within the program qualifies you to earn an official LSU digital badge to show off your skill sets. This badge can be used to bulk up your resume and showcase your expertise in the topic. Badges are distributed through Acclaim by Credly. If you have completed this MicroCred program, you can request your badge by clicking here.
This program is approved to receive funds from the Career Change Scholarship. Save time and money on skills-based programs.
