Digital Badges

What is a digital badge?

Digital badges are portable web-enabled credentials that can be verified in real-time and shared across platforms, including LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and in an email signature block. Digital badges are awarded for selected Professional Learning events.

What are the benefits of a badge?

Badges are a way of recognising, measuring and verifying learning. They provide evidence of the knowledge, skills and attributes the learner has demonstrated. Badges support a growing worldwide interest in continuing lifelong professional education and are being adopted by many industries and professions.

How is a badge earned?

To earn a badge, certain requirements must be met. This may involve satisfactorily completing activities, assessments and/or projects which demonstrate evidence of learning.
