FAQ
Sharing badges with graduate schools, potential employers, etc., is a great way to demonstrate some of the skills and competencies you have acquired that are not captured in an academic transcript. The evidence attached to a badge provides concrete examples of your work. You can also view labor market insights that include top locations that are hiring for a particular skill, top job tiltes and employers, and salary ranges assiciated with those jobs.
Faculty and professional staff may wish to develop a badge when they identify a coherent set of integrated competencies that is not currently captured or easily demonstrated through a traditional academic transcript, CV, or resume. Development will occur with the assistance of the Badging Committee.
You can share the badges you earn through social media platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. Badges can also be embedded and shared via hyperlinks. Anyone viewing your earned badges will be able to view the evidence that was uploaded when you were issued the badge.
