Presentation Description (for publishing in the conference program)
The landscape of higher education is swiftly and dramatically changing in the U.S. As credential evaluators and admissions officers, how are we to navigate this new territory that includes badges, bootcamps, MOOCs, and more? This session seeks to delve into the rapidly expanding world of alternate credentials to define what this actually means and to determine where we are headed in the future. Join us for an interactive and lively discussion that will leave participants with increased knowledge of the options available for students and a deeper understanding of how to evaluate non-traditional forms of education.
