Overview

Badges are digital credentials used to recognise completion of courses and programs.

There are two main types of badges 'Site Badges' and 'Course Badges' which can be awarded in four ways:

  • Manually
  • On completion of courses or programs
  • On completion of profile fields
  • Audience membership

To award badges on the system, you must first have badges enabled on AssessBook. To do this, go to the admin menu (settings cog) > Advanced Features and tick the 'Enable badges' box.
