Earner then provided a written reflection on what they learned and how they might apply that new learning in their work. \n\nThe two reflections provided by the earner were 25 - 150 words each. The badge application submission was evaluated by a member of the Learning Agents Professional Development team.\n\n<br>\r\n\r\n### About this professional development event\r\n\r\nDuring the month of March 2022, [Knapp + Associates International](https://www.knappinternational.com/) hosted a series of events and learning experiences designed to provide a deep-dive on micro-credentials.\r\n\r\nThe kickoff session was **Micro-credentials 101** with Don Presant of [Learning Agents](http://learningagents.ca/).\r\n\r\n[**Presentation Deck**](https://www.dropbox.com/s/oxuvhei6jxow0x6/2022-03-03_Microcredentials101_Presant-Knapp_AsPresented.pdf?dl=0) |  [**Video link**](https://youtu.be/r0Hpi9x7lGU)\r\n\r\nCo-presenting with Lenora Knapp, Don framed the need for micro-credentials, defined terms and explained concepts, and provided several real-life, case studies of micro-credentials in action. The session closed with an extended question and answer period. Particpants were invited to submit a post-event refelction to earn a digital badge.\r\n\r\nEstimated professional development effort was 60-90 minutes, including post-event reflection.","id":"https://openbadgefactory.com/v1/badge/_/R83888aP4Ba4IP/criteria.html?v=2.0&event=R88MBVaP4Ba7OX"},"name":"Explorer: Open Badges and micro-credentials","@context":"https://w3id.org/openbadges/v2","description":"The earner of this badge has explored how digital badges and micro-credentials based on Open Badges can support  lifelong learning and career development.","type":"BadgeClass","issuer":{"id":"https://openbadgefactory.com/v1/client/?key=MZG0Q4qE6Wq1&event=R88MBVaP4Ba7OX&v=2.0","image":"data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAOcA...","url":"https://learningagents.ca/","email":"info@learningagents.ca","name":"Learning Agents","type":"Issuer","description":"Flexible skills recognition for the future of work.
