The Open Badge Passport is Open Badge Factory’s sister service, and for this reason the receiving of a badge between these two platforms has been made as simple as possible.
If the organisation issues the badge via Open Badge Factory and the badge earner is using the Open Badge Passport, the badge earner can receive the badge straight to his/her Passport account if the same e-mail address that the badge is issued to is saved to his/her account information in Passport. To make the receiving of the badge easy, it’s good to:
- Instruct your badge earners to create a free account in Open Badge Passport as soon as possible, even before issuing the very first badge.
- Ask the badge earners to add all e-mail addresses they are using to their Open Badge Passport account when it doesn’t matter to what address the badge is issued to as it will always find its way to the earner’s Passport account.
Benefits:
- Badge earners will receive the issued badge straight to their Open badge Passport account where they can approve or reject the badge.
- No complicated approval process through e-mail.
- The badge is received by the earner, although the badge issuing message would have gone to the earner’s junk folder.
