Micro-Credential Short Courses
Don't have time for a full diploma? Micro-credentials let you build valuable, targeted skills on your own schedule. These are for-credit, academic courses grouped around a specific area of focus, so you can upskill quickly, earn recognized credentials, and apply your learning immediately to your career or studies. Micro-credentials are also stackable towards a one-year Certificate in Brewing.
