This is a self-paced course which you can take at any time and at your own pace. This course is based on the facilitated online training that was a part of the KA2 Project “Badges4Good” and which took place in November 2020 combining live webinars and online learning environment. This course is using videos recorded from that online training. Additionally we re-used materials created for another online course “21st century recognition with Open Badges”, which was part of the Capacity building project “Digital Generation Youth”.

The course was created by Laimonas Ragauskas (Lithuanian Association of Non-formal Education), Ekaterina Sherer (Spain) and Nerijus Kriauciunas (Lithuanian Association of Non-formal Education) in cooperation with “Badges4Good” project partners.
