Overview of the Two-phase study design

Phase	Purpose	Contributors / learners	Data sources	Intended output
Phase 1	To examine the collaborative co-design of sustainability-focused micro-credentials using the integrated framework	Research team and collaborating academic co-design teams	Workshop reflections, facilitator notes, design artefacts, workshop feedback	Practice-based insights into framework application and curriculum design
Phase 2	To pilot the implementation and learner evaluation of one standalone micro-credential (environmental sustainability in education)	15 postgraduate students (5 survey respondents)	Post-module retrospective self-assessment survey of perceived pre- and post-competence levels, with learner experience feedback	Exploratory insights into perceived competence development and learner experience

Phase 1 draws on practitioner-generated design insights rather than formal participant data collected under research ethics procedures
