Digital Badges
FIT’s Center for Continuing and Professional Studies is offering digital badges to help students authenticate and communicate the skills they’ve learned in the classroom and how those skills translate to their career. Digital badges will allow students to easily communicate and share their achievements, share their badge with social media sites like LinkedIn, and incorporate them on their resume and their personal website.
