Abstract
Microcredentials and digital badges have been around in business for several years, but educational institutions are more recent adopters. As a system for verifying and certifying skills, microcredentials and digital badges blur the lines between internationalization and globalization as borderless activities occur. So how can community colleges use this tool to augment curriculum internationalization? Explore resources, trends, and process ideas on the potential for this process.
