The future of e-learning with Skill+ and Open Badges

88.2% of respondents in a recent report said that digital badges are necessary for the future of education and business. In our digital day and age you need to be able to verify achievements quickly, conveniently and easily, in a way that is often just not possible when interacting with traditional transcripts and schools. Verifying a student’s grades and achievements today can take weeks and a significant amount of effort, resulting in a loss of valuable time and a poor user experience for everyone.

Join e-learning expert Digital Knowledge for an in-depth look at how they are changing the game with Skill+, Digital Knowledge's innovative digital badge wallet using Open Badge 3.0, at the Indicio Identity Community Meetup! Skill+ simplifies the collection and management of Open Badges from multiple platforms, helping individuals and organizations efficiently organize and verify digital credentials.

Digital Knowledge integrates Indicio Proven to ensure that Open Badges issued through Skill+ are verifiable and privacy-preserving. By leveraging Indicio’s decentralized identity technology, Skill+ enables users to manage and share their digital credentials with full control, enhancing trust and security in professional and educational environments.

Open Badges 3.0 is the latest standard in digital credentialing, designed to enhance security, interoperability, and verifiability. Unlike previous versions, Open Badges 3.0 leverages verifiable credentials and decentralized identity principles, ensuring that digital badges can be independently verified and trusted without relying on a central authority. This advancement makes it easier to share skills and achievements across various platforms while maintaining authenticity and control over personal credentials.
