Robert Morris is one of few colleges in the country to use a Student Credential Transcript. The Credential Transcript is a document produced for students alongside their traditional transcript of letter grades. As RMC students work toward their degree, they are earning credentials in skills that employers want. Credentialing allows students to watch their skills and abilities grow. The Credential Transcript plots the student’s progress through 10 skills across three levels of proficiency (acquisition, application, and integration).  Those 10 skills are:

Collaboration
Oral Communication
Written Communication
Creative Thinking
Critical Thinking
Cultural Awareness
Leadership
Managing Information
Quantitative Evaluation
Experiential Learning

Students can display their talents through several different means. Students can earn credentials through work experience, course grades, internships completion, and portfolio evaluation, among others. As you might expect students near the end of a degree program will have displayed a greater number of credentials than those just starting. The Credential mix will even vary from program to program, giving each program its own blend.

Why use Credentialing?
The purpose the Credential Transcript is to help students articulate their skill sets to potential employers. A student can also use the Credential Transcript to monitor his or her own professional and personal development.
