Two online meetings are held: the first for the client to present their idea, the second for the project manager to present their proposed solution and receive feedback. Meetings are conducted via a mutually agreed platform. Participants must have a laptop, headphones, and Internet access.\n\n**Benefits**\n\nStudents gain practical experience in virtual teamwork and learn to manage technological, organisational, and cultural differences commonly encountered in virtual work environments.\n\n**Teaching Methodology**\n\nAs described under Program above.\n\n**Assessment**\n\nA 400-word joint report and a 200-word individual reflection must be submitted. To earn the badge, students must fully engage in the project, provide screenshots of the two meetings (and any additional exchanges), and submit all deliverables on time.\n","id":"https://openbadgefactory.com/v1/badge/_/T7B2KKa9X3Ma10ZA/criteria.html?v=2.0&c_id=6e70e99b333c69f1627ebefb6c8c8af5027b04e67831a29da15c5a75426c0767"},"image":{"id":"https://openbadgefactory.com/obv3/images/badge/6e70e99b333c69f1627ebefb6c8c8af5027b04e67831a29da15c5a75426c0767","type":"Image"},"description":"This badge recognises successful completion of the Virtual Collaboration Project that was organised during the fall semester of the academic year 2025–2026 between ESCP Business School and the University of Sussex Business School, allowing students from the two institutions to take part in a virtual collaboration project simulating a client–project manager business relationship.
