Pathways to Credentials
Stackable credentials focus career and technical education programs on building the critical skills needed for students to advance in growing sectors of the economy.
By awarding credit for a range of education, training, and workplace learning and skill building experiences that “stack” toward associate degrees, stackable credential programs help working students develop the skills they need to advance on the job and earn credentials that enable further study – at the same time. This accelerates credit attainment and may increase the likelihood of degree completion.
