Digital Badging
EKU has partnered with Badgr to issue digital badges to students completing training with EKU Workforce Development & Community Engagement. Digital badges are a real-time transcript that can inform a potential employer about your particular skill-set. When you claim your badge it will be placed in your personal digital backpack. As you complete additional classes with EKU digital badges will accumulate in your backpack.
Digital badges integrate into social media platforms such as LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter! Use this function to show off what you’ve learned with your friends and peers.
Our system also includes a pathway tool. The pathways system provides a visual way for you to track your progress through one of our certificate programs. As you complete classes within a certificate program, the badges will change from a grayed out icon, into a full color badge. You can use the pathway tool to determine what courses you should plan to take next to complete your certificate program.
We hope you find our digital badging system helpful to you as a student with EKU Workforce Development & Community Engagement. in class soon!
