Digital Badging

The UND Digital Badging & Micro-Credentialing Initiative showcases our Leaders in Action.

What are Digital Badges?

A digital badge is a highly portable, transferable, visible symbol representing a talent, skill, accomplishment, or achievement. Rather than focusing on a specialization in a certificate or degree program, digital badges, or micro-credentials, demonstrate range. They are much shorter in duration, and they are free. If there isn’t already a badge for your achievement, just ask! We can create one for you!

The UND Digital Badging & Micro-Credentialing Initiative allows evidence-submitted badges, which can be created for an individual staff, faculty, or student to recognize their own unique achievement. To discuss evidence-submitted badges, contact TTaDA for more information.

Certificate of Completion VS Digital Badge with Micro-Credential

When a learner attends a workshop hosted by TTaDA without a competency-based requirement, a Certificate of Completion based upon your attendance can be issued.  

Sample Certificate

When a learner fulfills the requirements to earn a micro-credential, a badge can be issued. 

Sample Badge

Process to Propose Digital Badge

The Micro-Credentialing Committee will review all proposal forms within two weeks of submission. Please contact TTaDA with questions. 

  1. Complete the Digital Badge Proposal Form 
  2. Digital Badge and Micro-Credentialing Committee will review the proposal 
  3. Upon approval, an Instructional Designer from TTaDA will be assigned as a point of contact. The contact person and the Instructional Designer will ensure that the badge meets requirements from all parties 
  4. Once participants have fulfilled their badge/micro-credential requirements, a CSV document will be shared with the Instructional Designer to disperse badges/micro-credentials.

For questions regarding the UND Digital Badging & Micro-Credentialing Initiative, please contact TTaDA.
