Digital Badges

Digital Badges are self-directed courses that reward you for your learning.

What are badges?

The University of Wolverhampton is at the beginning of an exciting project to introduce digital badges across the University.

Badges are self-directed courses you can work through at a pace that suits you. Once you’ve completed a course, you’ll be awarded a digital badge which you can share on portfolio websites such as LinkedIn – a great way to enhance your employability!

We currently have three live courses available that will help you to boost your academic skills to get the most out of your learning experience,  harness the power of digital tools and technology safely and responsibly, and prepare for the workplace whilst developing career management skills.  We are developing more badges across the University, so keep an eye out for updates.
