"Life Experience Required: Prior Learning & Digital Badges," the free webinar from Credly, where we discussed how digital badges play a role in translating prior learning to a currency others can understand. Learning happens in many places, and our panelists help adults translate and share their accomplishments.

In this webinar, you'll learn:

1. That education and learning comes from many non-traditional places, and how to identify and articulate skills learned outside of the classroom to earning a digital credential
2. How to build a badging program that communicates proof of skills learned outside of the classroom
3. Stories from our panelists about how their prior learning digital credentialing programs have positively impacted the earners of their organizations
