A digital badge is a portable online data object which represents an outcome or achievement. They are secure, web-enabled credentials that contain granular, verified information employers can use to evaluate an individual’s potential. IBM digital badges are defined by an open technology standard (OBv2) and common language for describing and validating what each IBM digital credential represents.
BM has partnered with Credly to leverage their platform to translate your learning outcomes or experiences into the digital badges. This allows the badge earner (you) to accept, manage and share your digital badge and the credentials it represents as a digital asset.
