At MII, we continuously look for ways to enhance the learner journey and experience with MII’s qualifications and certifications programmes. As part of the rigorous Academic Framework Review exercise conducted in 2021, we are pleased to provide a new, clear, and simplified pathway for our qualifications and certifications programmes which include easy understanding of progression and outcome at each milestone in the pathway. A significant change to our academic pathway is the introduction of various Micro Credentials attainable throughout the academic journey.
Professional Qualification is increasingly being perceived by Industry Leaders as a path to promote competence and professionalism in the industry. With a simpler pathway and short term certifications available throughout the progression, learners can gain multiple recognitions when they acquire specialized knowledge or skill set at every level of the pathway. This is a significant benefit for learners as it motivates continuous learning to complete a qualification programme.
