"The credentials environment grows more complicated by the day, but this book answers key questions which help us understand why we must grapple with those complexities. The authors offer a broad view of the credentials environment, focus on categories of credentials, from the associate degree to doctoral degrees to non-degree credentials, and consider the implications for higher education leadership in volatile times"--Provided by publisher.
