Badges are used to directly communicate valuable skills that are often difficult to show on a traditional transcript.
How does it work?
Badges will be earned and issued using Portfolium, the electronic portfolio tool where you can see the requirements for earning the badge and track your progress.
Want to create one?
Programs that wish to create their own badging opportunities may submit a proposal to the Dean for Undergraduate Studies.
UMD has awarded its first badges!
