Guide: How to Transfer Your Credits
Upon successfully completing a Microdegree program at UET, you'll be awarded a course completion certificate and a digital badge issued via Credly. Our partnership with Credly and ACE provides a streamlined approach for sharing your achievements with educational institutions and organizations.
Here's a step-by-step guide to transferring your credits:
✔️ Step 1: Badge Issuance and Acceptance: After finishing your course, UET will issue you a digital badge. You'll need to accept this badge and create an account on Credly. For guidance on managing your digital badge, watch this tutorial.
✔️ Step 2: Sending Your Transcript: Once your badge is secure in your Credly account, you can initiate the transcript sending process. Log into your Credly Dashboard, navigate to the profile icon in the upper right corner, and select "Send Transcripts." For a detailed walkthrough, view this video.
Credly enables you to send a consolidated, competency-based transcript that outlines the credit recommendations for the courses you've completed through UET. This efficient process ensures that your hard-earned credits are recognized by prospective learning institutions, supporting your educational and career advancement.
Prerequisites: Each microdegree program may come with its own set of prerequisites, ranging from the completion of specified courses to proficiency in relevant skills. Details about these prerequisites can be found on the individual microdegree program pages.
English language proficiency: As all coursework and assessments are conducted in English, it's essential for students to possess strong English language skills to fully engage with the material and succeed in their assessments.
