Competence Development in the MPM is orchestrated through Competence Cells. A competence cell (CCell) includes all the skills and local ingredients needed for a successful digital-green transition. It builds a crowdsourced pool of data, knowledge, and skills that emerge in a particular context. CCell can be seen as a ‘pop-up’ research unit that looks for the available infrastructure to set up MPM initiatives. CCells activities generate insights for SCF, iVRS and GRIx and function as ‘liaisons’ that facilitate relationships among QH stakeholders interested in particular streams, risks, and issues.
Proof-of-Competence (PoC)
Once the individual has a certificate proving their skills, they must communicate with various organizations to use digital credentials effectively for work or further learning achievements. MPM’s technology allows sharing skills beyond the traditional CV and linking people with learning and job opportunities through a novel Proof-of-Competence (PoC) mechanism. Our approach to stackable micro-credentials is intended to leverage PoC and represent exit and entry points to maximize learning and career opportunities through high-quality skills-based programs. PoC ensures that people who have gained competencies through impact-oriented actions, public service, or informal education can participate in the labour market and receive credentials for competencies mastered along the journey. Members can use their online portfolio with PoCs to pitch ideas to employers, a current project in competitions, or apply for new funding and better positions. PoCs unique properties are meant to indicate and visualize the value created by stakeholders in the SCF and introduce a new benchmark for success.
