Advanced learning pathways may be introduced later. Public pages will use “Learning Pathway” or “Developing Credential Pathway” until curriculum, assessment, instructors, standards and recognition are formally established.
Credentials will be published only when the standards are real.
Marbles architecture, advanced agent development and formal credential pathways may be introduced later. Atkinson will not advertise accredited, architect or master credentials until curriculum, assessment, instructors and recognition are established.
