We are in time throes if trying to design - we have discussed making badges and microcredentials separate entities. Badges are the quick, not very time intensive learning experiences. Microcredentials will be longer, require more if a process and more evidence, and will lead to some sort of monetary compensation upon completion.

Folks seem to be reinventing the wheel in school to school and district to district (that’s a little bit of a generalization, but...). It seems that in order to coordinate efforts more seamlessly, we need an app or something that aggregates and disseminates available PD. How awesome would it be to have an app that filters PD by cost, location, topic, provider, etc?
