In the Instructure Community, badges are designed to recognize members for the ways they participate in and contribute to the Community. They allow other members to identify you based on your interests and recognize your credibility as a member of the Community.
Badges are earned automatically as you reach milestones in your participation in the Community, and they display in your Community profile.
