Come to learn and work at this non-commercial cross-sector event organized by CanCred.ca and Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s Teaching and Learning Commons. Help us transform Open Badges into eCredentials that build our workforce.

Help us brainstorm new ways of recognizing learning and achievement in our organizations, institutions and communities. Help build a better environment for lifelong learning and success by working with colleagues from education, public, nonprofit and private sectors.
