For the past year, WSCUC has been one of more than 100 organizational co-sponsors of the Connecting Credentials project. The Lumina Foundation is currently conducting a credential survey to learn more about the growing practice of embedding industry and professional certifications within higher education programs. This national survey will collect information about partnerships between higher education institutions, high schools, employers and industry groups regarding credentialing. We ask that you please take this survey.  It takes less than 15 minutes to complete, and information you share about your institution and programs will be useful to the project. The survey is available at the link above through July 22, 2016. The findings will be summarized and a select number of sites across the country will be studied as models of innovation.
