In the past few years, many organizations have introduced recognition and certification programs using digital badges, but too often the results produced by these programs have disappointed. Badge earners don’t bother to claim or share their badges, and as a result, issuing organizations have wasted their time and effort.

You will learn the types of badges that drive learner engagement, course completion, higher outcomes, and progression of learning.
