What is needed for us to issue a badge?

A badge is issued to a person based on Name (First name, Last name), and their e-mail address. This is why we ask for this information upon registering a course or doing a required Exam.

We are using the “badgr” platform to issue badges which are conform to the OpenBadges standards. This means these conform to standards and can often be opened from another badges backpack you may have in another platform already.
