Exams & Credentials
Badges
VoorStudentenAdministratie
Digital badges that are not awarded but calculated — with the condition in plain text, also for what has not yet been achieved, and the evidence for what has been achieved.
Waarvoor#
A badge whose condition you do not know is a gamble, not a goal. And one that remains after a grade correction is wrong — that is why it is recalculated instead of copied.

- 1Students: in the campus open “Studies” → “My badges” (address /studium/badges).
- 2At the top: “x of y badges” and the ECTS from passed achievements.
- 3Badges achieved show “Evidence:” — the achievement they follow from, with date; open ones show “Required:” (Afb. 1).
Afb. 1 “My badges”: achieved badges with “Evidence:” and date, open ones with “Required:”. - 4The administration opens “Badges” (address /admin/badges): “How often achieved” per badge with condition and number of students, below that each student with their badges (Afb. 2).
Afb. 2 “How often achieved” in the administration: every badge with condition and number of students.

The badges and their conditions#
- First exam passed — at least one passed course exam
- Three exams passed — at least three passed course exams
- First academic achievement — at least one assessed and passed achievement in the achievement archive
- Very good — at least one passed achievement with grade 1.3 or better
- 30 ECTS and 60 ECTS — from assessed, passed achievements
- Thesis passed
- Graduation — an issued final transcript
Who may do what#
- Students see their own badges.
- The administration (and the operator) sees who has which badge — read-only: when recalculating, the overview enters no award date for other people's accounts.
Tips#
- There is deliberately no “Award badge” button: badges follow from passed exams, assessed achievements and the transcript.
- If a grade is corrected, a badge based on it disappears by itself — both pages recalculate on every visit.
- None achieved yet? The page refers to the achievement archive.
