EFMD Membership survey into online management education

CONFIDENTIAL Participant Information Sheet
We designed this survey to elicit the views, expectations, priorities and current position of member organisations in the field of online and blended management education. Survey responses should reflect the opinions and views of a Senior Manager and relate to their unit/department/school within the overall institution.
Neither participants, nor their institutions will be identified in any aggregated materials. No personal information is required. Survey findings will be used within EFMD Global to inform future benefits for members. We may use aggregated data in Global Focus articles or EFMD blogs relating to online education.
Typically, survey responses will be retained for six (6) years following completion of the research and then destroyed.

Section 3: Your position on micro-credentials

For the purpose of this survey we use the EU definition of micro-credentials:
“ ‘Micro-credential’ means the record of the learning outcomes that a learner has acquired following a small volume of learning. These learning outcomes will have been assessed against transparent and clearly defined criteria. Learning experiences leading to micro-credentials are designed to provide the learner with specific knowledge, skills and competences that respond to societal, personal, cultural, or labour market needs. Micro-credentials are owned by the learner, can be shared and are portable. They may be stand-alone or combined into larger credentials. They are underpinned by quality assurance following agreed standards in the relevant sector or area of activity.”
