Microcredentials
Demonstrate your skills and achieve your professional goals with the Sydney School of Entrepreneurship’s microcredential badges.
Microcredentials are a powerful way to personalise your learning to your career goals. Given obtaining a microcredential is faster than traditional certifications, they're perfect for working towards specialised learning outcomes.
When you complete a course with SSE, you'll receive a digital certificate and badge (powered by Credly) that you can use to showcase your credential online. Find out more with our FAQs below.

How do the badges work?
Our badges are web-enabled versions of a credential which can be verified online. We've partnered with Credly to distribute digital badges that outline the learning outcomes you demonstrated.
