Short courses & microcredentials

As the need for blended and online educational programs continues to rise, the demand for skilled digital learning designers (LDs) is also increasing. Oppida has been advocating for the importance of the LD role as a means of enhancing the quality of digital educational offerings since its inception. Oppida is an education brand that is committed to providing education, and in 2021, we launched Oppida Learning to further our mission.
