Partial Derivatives

Earning credentials in Calculus demonstrates to prospective employers competencies that are essential to engineering, economics, education, and finance require a foundational knowledge of calculus concepts to understand and perform tasks in their daily responsibilities. Specifically, this badge demonstrates the earner's ability to apply the derivatives from functions using several variable differentials including limits and continuity in higher dimensions, partial derivatives, directional derivatives and gradient vectors, tangent planes and differentials, extreme values and saddle points, and Lagrange multipliers.
