Today, WDQC is releasing a report, Credential Data Pioneers: Forging New Partnerships to Measure Certifications and Licenses, which highlights states and schools that have taken steps to broker data-sharing agreements with certification bodies and licensing agencies in order to better understand the attainment and value of selected non-degree credentials.
The report focuses on case studies from the states of Indiana, Illinois, North Carolina and California that illustrate partnerships at various stages of implementation.
WDQC will host a webinar on Tuesday, April 22, 2014 at 2:00 p.m. ET to discuss the case studies highlighted in the publication and how other states and schools can use those examples to help inform their own non-degree credential tracking efforts.
Today also marks the launch of the new bimonthly WDQC e-newsletter, which will provide a summary of our reports, presentations and other activities. Sign up here to receive future e-newsletters in your inbox.
