TOOLS AND RESOURCES

Playbooks

Credential As You Go Playbooks are “how-to” guides to provide topics, policies and practices that support developing an incremental credentialing system. Each playbook addresses different components core to incremental credentialing. Additional playbooks will be added as they are developed and new topics arise.

Each playbook includes a purpose statement; template(s), questions, and/or checklists to guide developments; and case studies/examples. In addition, playbooks contain related resources such as the Credential As You Go Dictionary, video recordings from Credential As You Go webinars, the Learn & Work Ecosystem Library, and resources others have recommended for this topic. These playbooks are living documents. As more incremental credentials are designed, tested, and implemented, the playbooks will reflect lessons learned, additional case studies, and new tools created by stakeholders.
