What is a Chief Credential Innovation Officer?

A Chief Credential Innovation Officer (CCIO) is a senior leader for enterprise-wide credential innovation, at the unit, college, or institutional level. CCIOs are accountable for the credentialing portfolio, making decisions to advance the strategy, leadership, and vision of postsecondary credentialing, including but not limited to technology, pedagogy, external affairs, nomenclature, and governance. UPCEA recognizes there is diversity in such roles and decisions. CCIOs are sometimes professional or online education leaders, with alternative credentials in their portfolio, while others are solely focused on alternative credentials.


CCIOs:  

  • Meet for peer-to-peer networking and to discuss issues related to leadership, strategy, management, and public policy at the annual convening.
  • Have access to special content focusing on the CCIO perspective at events such as Convergence and the UPCEA Annual Conference, as well as Strategic Conversations, high-level, virtual briefings held semi-annually on topics of import.
  • Communicate via a dedicated CORe channel for the credential community to share candid questions and comments with peers.
