BLOG: Open Skills, Open Credentials, Open Opportunities
The purpose of education in any form can really be boiled down to one thing: opportunities including personal improvement, career advancement, increased income levels, and increased levels of personal satisfaction. Skills-based education, hiring, and even the creation of job listings are the future. In a rapidly changing job landscape, the essence of education lies in providing learners with tech-enabled opportunities that are catered to the skills economy. So what do those opportunities look like?
Edalex named EdTech Provider of the Year at the 2023 Victorian International Education Awards
Edalex has been honored with the 'EdTech Provider of the Year' award at the 2023 Victorian International Education Awards organised by Study Melbourne. Having received more than 280 total applications in this, their 10th year, 2023 also marks the inaugural inclusion of the EdTech provider category, and we're proud to have earned this prestigious recognition.

Edalex is excited to see continued integration and use of our openRSD library by other organisations and EdTech platforms, such as that announced by our valued integration partner Learning Vault. This integration empowers credential creators to select skill associations from openRSD, align their credentials with the world’s largest library of skills descriptors, enhancing metadata and future-proofing skills. Credential recipients and viewers can easily view the linked skill descriptors to gain greater insight into the context and value of the credential.
Join our session at ePIC 2023, where Darren Ponman and Margo Griffith will present a case study of the collaboration between the Hunter School of Performing Arts and Edalex.

Credentialate extends the scope of evidence beyond quantitative and qualitative feedback to dramatically enrich evidence with Artefacts. Institutions can upload and store personal artefacts for learners in the form of files such as videos, images, documents and links, to use as customised evidence of skills for a credential. Additionally, text - such as individual instructor feedback - can be embedded in the record.
