Have micro-credentials helped you get ahead?
Gone are the days of getting one qualification out of school to see you through your working life. Now, upskilling, online courses and on-the-job training are all part of making your way up the career ladder.
We want to talk to people who have completed micro-credentials, bitesize qualifications for specific skills.
Perhaps you've pieced together a full qualification by doing online courses, or maybe you've taken a workshop rather than investing in a six-month course. We'd love to hear from you - email josephine.franks@stuff.co.nz

Amnesty International’s movement of ten million celebrates the world’s biggest human rights event on Human Rights Day on 10 December. New Zealanders will take action to stand up for freedom, justice and equality through its 'Write for Rights' day on Saturday 7 December.
Date: Saturday 7 December
Time 2.00 - 4.30pm
Venue: Friends Meeting House, 30 Nile St, Nelson.
Our collective action pressures authorities around the world to bring those responsible for human rights abuses to justice, and to free people wrongfully imprisoned. Here in Nelson our annual gathering to write letters and send messages of support to victims of human rights abuses around the world will take place at the Friends Meeting House on Saturday 7 December.
Please bring a small contribution for a shared afternoon tea. Tea and coffee will be provided.
And please encourage others concerned about human rights issues to come too - all are welcome!
