Why BadgeKit?

There are too many gaps in the badging experience and many of the existing options are too closed, too expensive or too big.

It’s harder to make an open badge than a closed

badge.

Our Goal with BadgeKitTo improve the badging experience for issuers, learners and consumers, making open badging simple and easy to do.

Close the gap with lightweight, free open badging tools.

Our Goal with BadgeKitProvide the foundational tools to stoke the growth and development of the Open Badges ecosystem.

Given the open source model of BadgeKit, improvements made by anyone can benefit everyone, from bug fixes to new features and more.

Our Goal with BadgeKitBuild our values of openness, interoperability, agency, choice, and connectedness into the core and help shape emerging badge systems.

Let’s make it easier to build and issue an open badge.

Let’s get started!
