• A digital representation or symbol of an educational achievement awarded on completion of a set of educational objectives.
• Embedded with meta-data that describes and validates an individual’s acquired knowledge, skill, or competence within a specific area of practice.
• Shared and displayed digitally, digital badging allows recipients to showcase their achievements and provide proof of learning in an ever-increasing digital environment.
• Encourage, motivate, and connect learners to new and rewarding opportunities while promoting these same achievements to current and future employers.

Want to showcase your educational and professional achievements? Earned badges can be uploaded and displayed to social media profiles such as LinkedIn or Facebook, personal websites as well as on resumes. These are embedded with meta-data that authenticates the badge and creates an online record of the achievement therefore making the accomplishments more “visible” online.

Potential employers or curious colleagues can click on the badge to instantly verify the credential or achievement earned, including the recipient’s name, the description of the credential or achievement, what was required to achieve it and the issuing organization.

Much like traditional awards for educational or professional development achievements, digital badges proudly display professional accomplishments across the web.
