Micro-Certs are short, on-demand courses that let you sharpen specific skills and advance your knowledge without the time commitment of a full designation.
Tip: Each Micro-Cert can be completed in as little as 25 minutes a day, with individual assignment modules taking as little as 5 minutes.
What is a Micro-Cert?
Micro-Certs are topic-focused and built for working professionals — you can make meaningful progress on your lunch break or between meetings. Micro-Certs are different from designation courses and certificate programs. They don’t require an exam, and they stand on their own as individual learning products.
What topics are available?
Current Micro-Certs cover a range of roles and subject areas, including:
- Closing Commercial Coverage Gaps
- Managing Clients’ Cyber Risks
- Understanding Supplemental Personal Lines
- Helping Clients Prepare for the Worst
- Identifying Commercial Clients’ Risks
- Leading and Coaching Skills
- Examining Workers Compensation Coverage
- Understanding P&C Ratemaking and Pricing
- And more
You can filter available Micro-Certs by role — including Claims, Underwriting, Risk Management, Agents & Brokers, and others — on the Micro-Certs page.
Do I earn anything when I complete a Micro-Cert?
Yes. Upon completing a Micro-Cert, you’ll earn a digital badge hosted on the Credly platform. You can display your badge in your email signature, on LinkedIn, or on a personal website to showcase your achievement to employers and peers.
