What is a digital badge?
A digital badge is earned after an individual joins the badge opportunity, takes the steps to earn the badge through learning, then submits their evidence for feedback. Once the individual receives the feedback showing evidence of the learned skill they are then given a digital “sticker” or badge that represents their learning.

Badges are amazing
When speaking with people that don't know what badges are, I usually just describe them as achievements. By completing the tasks within the badge, you are gaining an achievement that shows you are proficient in the skills identified in that badge.
