2026 Badge Summit

Faculty engagement is critical to building credible and scalable microcredential ecosystems. This session explores how institutions can move faculty from initial buy-in to meaningful co-creation through multiple engagement pathways, including structured design bootcamps, service on microcredential review bodies, faculty liaison roles, and opportunities for faculty to earn microcredentials themselves. Participants will leave with practical strategies for lowering barriers, legitimizing participation, and sustaining faculty involvement across credit and non-credit contexts.
