| List of activities | Activity title | Activity description | Deadline |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Define the UNITA strategy for lifelong learning. | Analyse and benchmark the existing micro-credential- based strategies for lifelong learning (UNITA and other alliances). The analysis will consider different audiences and their needs. | (M1-M6) |
| 2 | Define and award the UNITA micro-credential label. | Identify criteria which define the label according to the personalized, multilingual, international approach and the territorial needs. Identify existing modules to be transformed into micro-credentials and micro-credentials that could be awarded a UNITA micro-credential label. The UNITA label will be included, depending on the public, in the UNITA diploma supplement, Europass or the European student Card. | (M7-M48) |
| 3 | Develop new micro-credentials meeting emerging needs. | In collaboration with 4.1 and our associated partners the needs of UNITA's territories will be analysed in terms of up-skilling and re-skilling. We will also look into the needs of our students in terms of flexibilisation of study paths (Task 3.1) and employability. At least two calls will be launched with the aim to select the projects for the creation of new UNITA micro-credentials tailored to the emerged needs. | (M12-M48) |
| 4 | Set up the catalogue of UNITA labelled micro-credentials. | The catalogue contains all the UNITA labelled micro-credentials and is meant as a tool to support the personalisation of the study paths and reskilling and upskilling of lifelong learners. It will be hosted by the UNITA inter-university digital campus (Task 3.4) | (M12-M48) |
| 5 | Use micro-credentials as a contribution to the UNITA financial sustainability. | In cooperation with Task 5.2 and the Legal Entity create and implement the business model of the UNITA micro-credentials. | (M14-M48) |

| 1) Who are the stakeholders benefiting of the task’s actions ? | The task will deliver an instrument for developing MC in / from other tasks. Thus, the use of this instrument by other tasks could be documented (especially: 2.2: Romance Languages Learning and Intercomprehension, 3.1: International Learning Paths for a Personalized Education, 3.3: Innovation in Teaching & Learning Initiative, 5.5: Expanding UNITA in Europe and Beyond) | No relevant information available |
| 2) To what extent has the local/international society changed as a result of outcomes compared to before UNITA? What are the long term results for them ? | No relevant information available | MC will have to be acknowledged by professional partners within the territories — this could be an impact within external stakeholders |
