We’re thrilled to announce that the Expert Insights Workshop is taking place shortly at devcom Developer Conference 2024. Thanks to the support of devcom organization, we are able to invite game industry experts from all fields and levels of experience to collaborate in creating an Open Badge ecosystem tailored specifically for the game industry.
In the workshop, participants will collaborate in small groups to produce summarised competence descriptions based on their areas of expertise. These written descriptions will form the foundation of Europe’s first Open Badge ecosystem designed specifically for the game industry. Once published in 2025, this system will allow students and professionals to apply for badges that recognise their skills and competences, including those gained at work or in non-formal training.
