What are Openbadges?
Open Badges is the leading standard for digital credentials originally developed by Mozilla and now managed by IMS Global Learning Consortium®. It's now a popular and widely-adopted standard used by many organisations involved in skills, education and training. Openbadges.me is IMS-certified for Open Badges v2.
We're doing some really exciting work with Open Badges that we'd love to share with you. Please download our online guide, or why not contact us and ask about our product and see if it can work for you ?
Who we work with
Start your journey
Providing a digital certificate and a badge for your qualifications enables your learners to be more widely recognised for your qualification. A digital badge can be shared and used in multiple ways in our modern digital world.
1. Reinforce your brand and awareness of your qualifications
2. Provide a digital currency for your learners, e.g. in their resumes
3. Differentiate the value that your programs provide
4. Improve the security and auditability for your certification process
Create different badges for small steps in your training programs, so that learners can be recognised and motivated for achieving specific outcomes, building to your overall completion award.
1. Encourage and reward progression
2. Gamify your learning programs
3. Monitor progression more easily
4. Create clear pathways to success
Upgrade from printing and mailing paper certificates to digital certificates supported by a portable badge credential. Save time and money while improving the service and value you provide your users.
1. Supplement or replace your paper certificates
2. Improve security and auditability
3. Empower your users to easily share achievements, e.g. on LinkedIn
4. Reinforce your brand through wider digital use
Discovering your learner's skills and competencies becomes much easier and more valuable to the learner if you have provided them with a digital credential that they can share widely.
1. Make resumes stand out from the crowd with digital badges
2. Share skills via badges on LinkedIn and other social media platforms
3. Unlock skills data within digital badges
4. Future-proof to international standards
