Digital Badges/Microcredentials

It would be great to be able to integrate and offer digital badges in our courses.

    Hi Rob,

    I think Guest may be referring to open digital badges which can be shared in email signatures and social media so that viewers can click and view your credentials. Learners would be able to click on the png in their transcript and most likely download the file and share it out.

    An Open Badge is comprised of an image file with structured metadata (JSON or JSON-LD) embedded inside the image file. Images may be in in PNG or SVG format.

    https://openbadges.org/about/faq#:~:text=the%20badge's%20information.-,FOR%20DEVELOPERS,in%20PNG%20or%20SVG%20format.

    Is this something that's possible in Absorb today?

    Hello,

    Initially I thought that our Competencies feautre addressed your use-case, but there may be some differences or details that we're missing, could you share some more information on that?

    I have so many ideas to uses badges in our organization, but without begin able to integrate true digital badges we have yet to go this route.
