A digital badge is a unique and portable digital representation of your certificate that you can post on the online pages that promote you and your skills (such as LinkedIn or Facebook).
If you earn a passing grade in all courses for a given certificate you can earn a certificate of completion and digital badge. I encourage you to strive toward passing this course and all other Career Skills courses you take. This will increase your value to future employers, give you something to show for all your hard work, and strengthen your resume and/or LinkedIn profile!
