Micro-Credentials
Advance in your career with USask Micro-credentials. These quick, flexible programs are developed with you in mind, and are focused on skills that our local labour market needs.
Our programs offer a high-quality experience to help you boost your employability or invest in your professional development. These are not about memorization or passive participation, you will practice real-world skills endorsed by your industry and receive coaching, support, and targeted feedback.
Once we validate that you’ve obtained the specific skill/competency, you will walk away with an official university-level digital credential that you can share on your resume, on LinkedIn, or with employers directly.
