Involving credible universities to provide accredited certificate courses. The project worked with its academic partners to offer university accredited certificate courses covering a range of labor market information topics including labor market information policies and systems, establishment surveys, occupational and industrial classification systems, sampling and data collection, data analysis, and statistics. While the certificate courses experienced scheduling and technology difficulties when they were shifted from face-to-face to remote formats due to COVID-19, receipt of a university accredited certificate upon completion of the course was highly appealing to participants and, thus, served as an important motivational factor.
