Open Awards Badge of Excellence Certification
The Badge of Excellence is a quality assurance mark and Certificate issued by Open Awards which recognises excellent training, development and learning provision and meaningful outcomes for learners. It can be offered as a Certificate of Completion for learning where the learner is not applying for or receiving regulated qualifications or quality endorsed units.
In line with Open Awards' mission to change lives through learning, the Badge of Excellence quality mark assures the training and learning activities rather than accrediting the learners themselves and can be applied to a broad range of activities, including:
- Face-to-face training
- Group activities
- Community projects
- Distance learning
- E-learning
- Work placements
- Continued professional development
