Changing Your Study Plans Policy (Microcredentials) 2026/27

In March 2026, The Open University published the Changing Your Study Plans Policy (Microcredentials) 2026/27. 

There are some changes from the previous version of this policy (Changing Your Study Plans Policy (Microcredentials) 2025/26). These are: 

  • References to deferral of Microcredentials have been removed. 
  • We revised text on the inclusion of Microcredentials within qualifications.
