CCI LIVE: Virtual Events participants are eligible to earn digital credentials (aka badges) by attending each live session. Designed around the goals and values of CCI Program, badges celebrate professional development, global community-building, and increasing our knowledge. (However, you will only receive this badge for attending the live session.)
For general information about badges, see Educause’s 7 Things About Badges & Professional Development.
CCI LIVE: Virtual Events is fortunate to partner with Credly, a leader in workforce and academic micro-credentialing. Credly has partnered with the American Council on Education (ACE) to recognize workforce training. Credly also supported the Educause Learning Initiative (ELI) to recognize professional achievement in academia.
