HEA Micro-credentials Funding Opportunities
What are Micro-Credentials?
Micro-credential courses are small, accredited courses designed to meet the demands of learners, enterprise and society. Micro-credential courses award between 1 and 30 ECTS and provide awards at Levels 6-9 on National Framework of Qualifications.
Funding Eligbility
The HCI Micro-Credential Fee Subsidy has been introduced to enable more learners to address critical skills gaps and engage with lifelong learning through short, flexible courses known as micro-credentials. The eligibility criteria for the HCI Micro-Credential Fee Subsidy has been set out by the Higher Education Authority (HEA) and will be administered by the course provider you are applying to during the admissions or registration process. Please contact the course provider with any questions you may have.
HCI Micro-Credential Fee Subsidies are available on identified micro-credentials only and are limited. Course providers will administer the subsidy on a first come first serve basis unless otherwise stated.
