What's This?
Digital Badges are a form of portable microcredential which evidences your investment in particular areas of specialism.
Your badge contains data which authenticates the achievement to you. You can download an image with this data embedded and share it via a 'backpack' (such as Badgr) or use your Rise Transcript to maintain your profile.
You should also share your badges to LinkedIn.
This digital badge recognises the effort the holder has invested in developing their understanding and application of technical knowledge and skills by engaging with and completing a discipline specific applied laboratory project challenge provided by Manchester Metropolitan University.
The project challenge may be delivered in collaboration with or led by an external stakeholder and simulates real-word scenarios and challenges. This indicates a foundational grasp in both discipline specific applied skills and professional skills including communication, team working and leadership skills, and reflects a commitment to continuous learning and professional development.
