Micro-GEAR will support structural reforms in the higher education sector of Georgia and Armenia, with the aim of introducing and facilitating the broad proliferation of micro-credentials as a tool for improving relevance, quality and flexibility of higher education. The project aligns with the European Council's Recommendation on micro-credentials for lifelong learning and employability. It aims to update National Qualifications Frameworks in two countries, establish consensus on micro-credentialing principles, promote educational activities for micro-credentials, and facilitate mutual recognition.
