Some courses have badges associated with them. And, as a learner, you can earn a badge if you meet the badge criteria for your course.
How to find badge requirements
Each badge has its own requirements/criteria for gaining the badge.
Generally courses detail the requirements in the Overview for the course and/or in the About this badge information.
Choose Overview on your course card on your Dashboard.
On the Overview, be sure to read the whole page to see if any badge requirements are stated there.
Then use About this badge to see any further information.
Common badge criteria
Some common criteria for being awarded a badge are:
Gaining 100% progress by viewing every page and completing all tasks (including any that you reset). See How do I complete my course to get 100% progress? for more information.
Participating in an in-page discussion or Talk channel.
Completing or achieving a certain mark for an assessed task or quiz.
Note: If you can't find the requirements for achieving your course badge after following the instructions below, check with your facilitator and/or learning provider.
How badges are awarded
If you meet all the criteria, your badge may be automatically awarded or awarded by your facilitator.
A facilitator may choose to award a badge manually, rather than letting the system do it automatically, if they need to verify additional requirements. This could include factors like attendance at a workshop, completion of a specific assessment, or contributions to social activities.
