Case Study: Kony helps app developers earn certifications with Badgr

Kony Base Camp Badging Platform Guides App Developers’ Ascent to Certification

Kony, a software company that builds app development technology, faced a growing skills gap: demand for designers and developers who could use its platform was outpacing the supply of qualified talent. To help its community learn the needed skills and progress toward certification, Kony launched Base Camp, an online training and certification program.

Using Badgr’s digital badging platform, Kony integrated Open Badges into Base Camp so learners could earn, track, and share verified credentials as they completed lessons, trails, quizzes, and community activities. The solution helped Kony recognize achievement at multiple levels, from beginner to certified expert, while giving learners portable badges for resumes, LinkedIn, and online portfolios.
