Find out what they are and the Tecnológico de Monterrey’s strategy to certify the skills and abilities of its students at the Professional, Graduate and Continuing Education levels.
Last July, the Tecnológico de Monterrey announced its institutional Credentials strategy as a commitment to formalize the actions that offer new options for the accreditation of learning, skills, and competencies that enhance the profile of its students.

With this initiative, the Tec becomes the first institution in Mexico and Latin America to implement Curricular Credentials in the study plans of its students at a professional level, and it is also positioned as one of the first institutions to establish formal actions for the issuance of Alternative Credentials for your students, graduates or any person who wishes to continue acquiring specific skills.
What are these Credentials?
The Curricular Credentials validate the comprehensive development of the competencies declared in the study plans, as well as the knowledge and skills obtained from other disciplines. These accreditations help to build a unique and differentiated graduation profile that allows the student to enhance their insertion in the labor market.
On the other hand, the Alternative Credentials are formal and extracurricular accreditations of specific knowledge, skills and competences. They are acquired through optional additional courses according to one's own interests. This new type of training allows students and professionals to constantly update and expand their knowledge, demonstrating their experience with physical or digital evidence.
In this way, the Tecnológico de Monterrey seeks that its students experience both types of training in parallel: that of a university degree and the development of specific skills, in order to complement and reinforce what they have learned. As you have seen, these credentials provide new, simpler, more accessible, and faster ways to acquire, deepen, or diversify the knowledge, skills, and competencies evidenced by job profiles.
