Read the following passage about The Rise of Micro-Credentials and Skill-Based Learning and mark
the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following
questions from 21 to 28.
The traditional path of education through textbooks and degrees is undergoing a dramatic
transformation. As industries evolve at an unprecedented pace, employers are increasingly valuing specific
skills over conventional academic credentials. This shift has given rise to micro-credentials, which offer
focused, skill-based learning experiences that can be completed in weeks or months rather than years.
The emergence of tech labs and digital learning platforms has revolutionized how people acquire new
skills. These innovative spaces provide hands-on experience with cutting-edge technologies, allowing
learners to gain practical expertise in specific areas. Unlike traditional classrooms, tech labs emphasize real-
world application and project-based learning, making them particularly attractive to both career changers
and industry professionals seeking to upgrade their skills.
Many organizations now recognize micro-credentials as valuable indicators of competency. These
credentials, which range from coding bootcamp certificates to specialized industry certifications,
demonstrate practical skills that are immediately applicable in the workplace. This recognition has led to a
surge in demand for short-term, intensive training programs that focus on specific technical or professional
capabilities.

The future of education appears to be moving towards a hybrid model that combines traditional
academic knowledge with practical, skill-based learning. This approach allows learners to build their
expertise incrementally while maintaining the flexibility to adapt to changing industry demands. As
technology continues to advance, the importance of continuous learning and skill updating will only grow
stronger.
