Introduction to Electrical Concepts in Semiconductor Packaging

Microcredentials are focused credentials with content designed to provide you with knowledge and specific skills in technical fields. A microcredential badge demonstrates proficiency in a specific skill or attainment of certain knowledge. Our micro-credentials are stackable towards aggregated skills in specific technical topic areas, offering varying levels of complexity (1-4) to provide you with the opportunity to “stack” your skills through into micro-badges and badges along specific topic areas within an emerging technology space!

A badge is earned when successfully completing four approved micro-badges within a specific topic area. A micro-badge is earned by successfully completing one short course and assessment, typically requiring 10 hours of instruction alongside 5-10 hours of additional study. Micro-badges are offered at four distinct levels, culminating with experiential learning activities to ensure you can apply the skills you gain!

A badge is earned when you successfully complete four approved micro-badges within a specific topic area. Each micro-badge is estimated at 10-20 hours of learning time, equating to 40-80 hours for a full badge. 

Navigating the vast landscape of learning options can be daunting, which is why The Fulton Schools of Engineering created a clear and structured leveling system for Micro-badges. Micro-badges are offered in four levels and are designed to guide you through a seamless progression of knowledge and skills, ensuring that each builds upon the last. Whether you're just starting out or looking to advance your expertise, our Micro-badges offer a flexible and customizable learning pathway to suit your needs. Here's how our four levels work: Level 1: Foundational knowledge introduction. Level 2: Introductory practical application within the emerging technology space. Level 3: Skill refinement towards industry-relevant hardware or software. Level 4: Advanced technical skills and troubleshooting with industry-relevant hardware or software.

After successfully completing the requirements of the course. You will receive an email with instructions on accessing your digital badge. Badges can be proudly displayed digitally on social media and referenced on your resume. 

We are committed to providing high-quality programs and are consistently working with faculty and industry experts to develop and deliver courses.
