The objective of the project is focused on:
As part of the project, a prototype will be developed that adds a node to an existing blockchain credentialling platform. Those achieving the micro-credentials will be awarded the professional accreditation and registered certificates by EBTN.
The European micro-credentials and professional qualifications certification system in the banking & financial services sector (thereafter- MiCreS) project ambition is to develop the first sector driven ecosystem for micro-credentials (blockchain-based) in financial services in Europe. The MiCreS project come under the Erasmus+, Forward Looking Programme (Call 2023) that has been approved by the European Commission at the end of 2023, with the duration from 01/01/2024 until 31/12/2026.
The project platform will be implemented within a consortium with Frankfurt School as the coordinator and 13 partners from Europe and third countries:
MiCreS will benefit various groups and stakeholders, such as banks, policymakers, employees, students, authorities, trainers, and educators. It offers fast, flexible, and inclusive learning opportunities that integrate the Sustainable Finance practices into daily work. The project addresses the skills gaps and training needs in the industry, as well as to provide learners with evidence of their acquired skills and knowledge that will be recognised throughout Europe.
The Key benefits of the project will be obtained are:
The cost of non-degree credentials to boost employee skills comparing with traditional programmes is typically less that help to have an inclusive labour market.
