Benefits of earning the Quality Label for Badge recognition

The Quality Label for Badge Recognition (further referred to as Quality Label) signifies a commitment to upholding quality standards in badge-issuing activities. By fostering a community dedicated to delivering quality learning opportunities and skill recognition, it aims to offer additional credibility and reliability in recognising and promoting quality Open Badge issuance practices.
﻿
Why should an Organiser apply for the Quality Label? What are the benefits?Organisers with the Quality Label can gain increased trust, credibility, recognition and visibility by highlighting the quality of their badge-issuing activities both within and beyond their sector. The Quality Label includes the essential data (e.g., name of issuing body, date of issuing, validity, etc.) necessary for different institutions and organisations to recognise it more efficiently across sectors.
﻿
Moreover, getting the Quality Label and committing to upholding its criteria can motivate an Organiser to offer qualitative content and activities. Earning the Quality Label is in and of itself a learning experience that can help develop and improve skills and competencies related to badge recognition.
﻿
The benefits of the Quality Label can also reflect on learners and stakeholders: by earning badges issued by a Quality Label holder, learners can showcase the quality of their learning journey. This can facilitate the next steps in their pathway by cooperating with or even endorsing a Quality Label holder. Stakeholders can demonstrate their commitment to quality learning and also benefit from an increase in credibility, trust and visibility.
﻿
Why did the Cities of Learning Network decide to develop the Quality Label?The Cities of Learning Network, as the issuer of the Quality Label, aims to build a more extensive community of badge issuers who are committed to using badges and improving the quality and recognition of badges.
﻿
Quality Label holders stand out among other badge issuers, and the Quality Label helps to build trust and reputation for badges as a tool for recognition, both for badge earners and stakeholders.
