Fall 2025 Check-ins (optional)
For the Fall 2025 Term, the Micro-credentialing Team will host OPTIONAL check-ins between CoPs. Participants may drop-in with any questions for support on Micro-credentialing Program Activities. There will not be a planned agenda for this time, and reminder emails will not be sent. Attendance at a Check-in does NOT count towards CoP requirements.
(Please note that, per OSEP grant-funded activity requirements, the Micro-credentialing Team cannot provide coaching or consultation for work beyond supporting the Micro-credentialing Program Activities during Micro-credentialing Check-ins.)
