From RMIT Creds to Learning resources
RMIT University is updating its approach to RMIT Creds, a suite of online micro-learning modules launched in 2017. The University is now reconceptualising Creds to better align with its evolving educational strategy and curriculum architecture. This shift aims to support sustainable, skills-based learning that meets the needs of both students and staff.

Learning resources are designed to enhance student learning through program integration and extracurricular activities. Their aim is to help students develop career-ready skills by covering topics such as:
- Academic integrity
- Cultural intelligence
- Global citizenship
- Peer mentoring
- Truth telling: racism and reconciliation
- WIL ready
- Womin Djeka Indigenous orientation.
The Library manages the Learning resources catalogue for the University. If you have any questions, contact our Teaching Support team.

Academic Integrity Awareness module
The Academic Integrity Awareness module is part of the suite of mandatory student onboarding modules that all students at RMIT's Australian campuses must complete. Commencing students will be automatically enrolled in the module and it will appear on their Canvas dashboard.
Academic integrity, or the ability to produce work with honesty and fairness, is essential to academic study.
This module explains the concept of academic integrity and its significance within and beyond university. As part of this module, students explore the importance of doing one's own work while also acknowledging how other people's ideas have influenced their thinking and writing.
To verify if a student has completed the module, please contact Student Connect.

Peer Mentoring course
Peer Mentoring is a student led study support program run by the Library. Peer mentors are students who have been trained to support other students in their learning. All levels of RMIT students from VE through to PhD are involved.
Peer mentoring has long-term benefits that extend beyond the higher education sphere. Future employees who have engaged in peer mentoring activity are more self-directed, culturally aware and have developed stronger communication and problem-solving skills. Effective peer-to-peer mentoring techniques promote valuable "soft skills" that many employers are seeking in future employees.
Students preparing to participate in the RMIT Peer Mentoring program as a mentor are required to complete this course. However, any RMIT student wishing to gain an understanding of the skills required to mentor another person is welcome to complete the course.
