Micro-credentials are now awarded to participants who attend all of and participate fully in webinar sessions. After a webinar, look for an email from the HubICL with hyperlinks for sharing news of your badge with others. The badges are a great way to tell contacts about your professional development on LinkedIn or other social media. They also appear in your dashboard at hubicl.org/pdz.
The individual micro-credentials can be added together to become a Global or Intercultural Learning Badge. See the image above for details.
| Name | Title | Institution | Location |
| Chiara De Santi | Associate Professor of Modern Languages/COIL Coordinator | Farmingdale State College | New York, USA |
| Sandra Lopez-Rocha | Intercultural Learning Specialist | University of Waterloo | Ontario, Canada |
| Joy Phaphouvaninh | Director, Illinois Abroad and Global Exchange | University of Illinois Urbana Champaign | Illinois, USA |

All badges are awarded through a special new development in the Intercultural Learning Hub and require a HubICL account. If you do not have an account, you can get started by going to hubicl.org/register. If you attended sessions in the series before creating a HubICL account, micro-credentials and badges can still be accrued from the start of the series.
The CILMAR staff is hard at work turning the content of the webinar series into self-learning modules. The first module on Facilitating and Assessing Openness is now available. To see the content, go here and then click Offerings, Access Course, and then Outline in the left menu. Suitable for your own review or to share the content with a colleague, the modules will result in the same opportunity for badging as the webinar sessions.
A self-learning module entitled Introduction to Mentoring Undergraduate Research in Global Contexts (MUR-GC) introduces learners to Mentored Undergraduate Research in Global Contexts (MUR-GC), a high-impact teaching practice involving three key elements: mentorship, undergraduate research, and global learning, and provides opportunities to reflect on high-impact practices within their contexts and the strengths and areas of opportunity they bring to these practices.
This course is drawn from a recent American Association of Colleges & Universities open-access publication, Mentored Undergraduate Research in Global Contexts: Integrated High-Impact Practices for Student Success, available for free download at the AAC&U website. The self-learning module provides an alternate multimedia entry point to the materials of the publication.
