Abstract
En 中文
Although short, accredited courses have existed in various forms for many years, it is only recently that universities have begun to offer micro-credentials. These courses are typically offered as a precursor or an adjunct to a full graduate or postgraduate programme and only rarely fully integrated within those programmes. As a result, micro-credential learners may not have access to the full range of support services available to registered students. This is a potential problem at a time when, in the wake of Covid, concerns about the mental health and wellbeing of students are increasing. This critical commentary identifies some of the barriers and enablers associated with the wellbeing of those studying micro-credential and suggests ways in which universities could provide support at different stages of the learner journey.
