Badgr is integrated with the learning management system to allow faculty and staff to create, manage, and distribute digital credentials to learners in the form of digital badges. By identifying module requirements in a course or training, faculty and staff can align specific requirements and/or outcomes in a course to automatically award a digital credential that learners can share in networks like Linkedin, ePortfolios (e.g., Portfolium), or in application materials to illustrated validated skills or achievements. To begin the process of enabling Badgr in your course, create a Badgr account for your department/unit.
Go to Settings and click on the "Apps" tab. Find and select "Badgr US" and then click "+ Add App." Enter the Consumer Key and Shared Secret provided to you by the vendor.
