萝莉社 University鈥檚 badge program makes workforce training and continuing education accessible and affordable. Each badge is designed with the practicing professional in mind so coursework can be completed online and at your own pace.
What are badges?
Badges are academic short courses of one credit hour or less that are designed for working professionals. They are online and self-paced. This makes workloads more manageable for someone who is already busy with a full-time job and family!
How do they work?
Unlike other online non degree courses, badges are tied to credit hours and are subject to all Higher Learning Commission regional accreditation standards. Badge coursework is part of a student's permanent academic record and will appear in an official transcript. Licensed professionals may also earn contact hours toward relicensure as well as college credit. Courses are taught by experienced faculty who are subject matter experts. The unique structure of a badge course affords 萝莉社 the flexibility to work with employers to develop the curriculum of a badge course. This key distinction allows employers to know that the education received during a badge course is valuable and relevant. Badges are for non-degree seeking students only.
When badge coursework is completed, it will appear on your 萝莉社 transcript. Although traditional letter grades are not given for a badge, it will appear on a transcript either as a 鈥淏G鈥� (for badge earned) or 鈥淣BG鈥� (for no badge earned). Badges will not impact one鈥檚 GPA. Students who successfully complete a badge will receive a digital recognition of their accomplishment that they can share on social media and link to a digital resume.
