| Abstract | Given the complex roles of special educators, it is important that they be offered tailored professional development (PD) opportunities. Unfortunately, most PD tends to occur in "sit-and-get" formats, with generalized content that may or may not meet the needs of attendees. Districts are starting to investigate the use of microcredentials (MCs) to innovate PD and harness technology to personalize experiences. MCs are digital PD focused on the mastery of competency-based skills. With a variety of topics, formats, and platforms available, educators would benefit from guidance on how to navigate MCs. In this article, we examine the historical context of PD and the gaps traditional PD may create for educators, particularly special educators. We explore the attributes and personalization of MCs and paint a step-by-step picture of how an interested educator might engage in the MC process, from selecting a topic to earning the MC and reflecting on the experience.
