UP publishes its first call for enrolment in short educational programmes and training courses for the acquisition of micro-credential
In the academic year 2026/2027, the University of Primorska is publishing its first call for enrolment in short educational programmes and training courses, upon completion of which participants obtain a micro-credential. Unlike macro-credentials (such as diplomas or licences), these courses are shorter in duration and focus on a narrower topic; within the education system, they complement degrees but cannot replace them.
The offer for the academic year 2026/2027 includes 24 courses delivered by six UP faculties and the UP NEBAP Hub. Enrolment is open to all interested individuals – students, employees, and the wider public. The courses carry ECTS credits, and micro-credentials thus enable a fast and flexible way of acquiring new knowledge and competences, which individuals can also use in further education and career development.
Applications are submitted via the online application form by 15 August 2026 for courses delivered in the first semester, or by 15 January 2027 for courses delivered in the second semester.
The full list of courses, the price list, and the text of the call are available at: https://www.upr.si/en/up--environment/micro-credentials/enrolment-call-26-27. For additional information, please contact kompetence@upr.si.
