Digital credentials (badges) are online credentials that learners can post on platforms such as email and social media networks to show skills they've learned and demonstrated through the completion of criteria. Digital credentials make it possible for learners to share their achievements online in a way that's easy and verifiable.
KEY TOPICS: Topics include Collaboration and Teamwork; Communication; Critical and Creative Thinking; Leadership; Mindset, Self-Management, and Initiative; Social Responsibility; and Basic Professionalism. With digital credentials, learners own and control their credentials. They can collect achievements earned across a range of formal and informal settings-from college degree programs and vocational training to competency-based career education and third-party credentialing programs-and display them online to enhance their professional story.
Employers are searching for specific skills to fit their business needs and find some college graduates lack such skills. At Pearson, we're devoted to creating tools that enable learners to reach their personal and professional goals and help learners display achievements to potential employers.
