What is a digital badge?

A digital badge is a sharable graphic icon that indicates that an individual met specific criteria for completing a new skill, training, or professional accomplishment.

Digital badges are designed to be easily shared on social media (such as LinkedIn), resumes, association profiles, and anywhere digital content is created and shared.

Here at Sports ETA and STLI, we take great pride in the badges our members acquire. We encourage our members to be proud of their accomplishments and hope they will continue to collect digital badges and share them within the sports events and tourism industry.
