The Badgr Platform

Badgr is available for free, inside of Canvas as an LTI app or via the Badgr.io website. With Badgr, you can collect, share, create and award Open Badges for user achievements. Badgr also has a full-featured API and is offered as an open source package.

Collect Badges

Anyone who has earned a badge from Badgr in a Canvas course or elsewhere, may sign up for a free account at Badgr.io and use its backpack feature to store and share badges they've earned to social networks, such as Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn. The backpack is fully Open Badges compliant and can store and manage badges issued from any Open Badges issuer on the web.

Award Badges

Users can also set up a free issuer profile to award their own badges for achievements they want to recognize in others. Award badges to any recipient with an email address right from the Badgr service, or connect Badgr to your Canvas courses to award badges to students.

Integration

Integrating Badgr with your Instructure-hosted or self-hosted Canvas instance is free and easy. It typically takes just a few minutes and can be installed at the course, sub-account or root level.

Subscriptions

If you are ready to take your badging program to the next level, you may wish to subscribe to Badgr Pro for Canvas or Badgr Pathways.

Badgr Pro for Canvas provides analytics for the badging happening on your Canvas instance. See the badges that are being awarded and when. Track badges in our course that were awarded elsewhere and understand how badges are being shared. Get greater administrative control over who can award which badges.

Give students an instant view of their progress and choices through your badge program with Badgr Pathways. Use the Badgr Pathways LTI app to display a learning pathway right within your course. View individual and group progress as a teacher to easily track learners in programs.

Customization

Badgr can be customized to suit your organization's needs. Concentric Sky has a team of highly skilled developers who can add the features you need for your badging program to be successful. Badgr also offers a white label product so companies and schools can offer a branded experience for a community of users.
