What is the Badge Summit?​

The 2022 Badge Summit @ CU Boulder seeks to honor our previous six gatherings while evolving to continue meeting the growing needs of our community.  The face-to-face conference will be hosted August 1-2, 2022 on the amazing CU Boulder campus. In-person attendance will be capped at 200 people. And to support access to learning and sharing for more people in more places, there will also be an entirely on-line component on August 9, 2022.

Registration for the August 9 virtual gathering is only $100 (and is an included perk in regular registration). Virtual content will include live and pre-recorded sessions, including highlight screenings of featured sessions from the August 1-2 face-to-face gathering.

In our return to in-person connections, the 2022 Badge Summit will expand to a second day, with learning and sharing kicking off with afternoon sessions and an opening keynote on August 1, followed by a welcome reception
.

The 2022 Badge Summit returns with in-person + virtual content in August 2022!

This two day event (+ online pre-conference webinars!) is bringing together some of the brightest and most inspiring Digital Badge thought leaders on the planet for highly interactive learning and sharing. In-person attendance is limited to 200 attendees. In addition to providing breakfast and lunch, the Badge Summit will offer participants electronic poster sessions (Table Talks), two keynotes, Fireside Chats with leaders, a Dream Maker’s Lounge and concurrent sessions and panels along curated strands that include:
  • K-12 Implementation
  • Higher Ed and Teacher Professional Development Badging
  • Community and Cultural Organization Badging 
  • Workforce Readiness & Industry Badging and Micro-credentials 
  • Hot Topics in Badges and Micro-credentials

How do I present? Is the Badge Summit open to all?
If you have amazing work that you want to make sure our curators know about, please submit a session using our 5 Minute Session Proposal Form. The Badge Summit continues to be a worldwide event, inviting presenters and attendees from all parts to learn and share with us! 

What about the Table Talk sessions?

One of the key learnings from previous years is that Table Talk sessions (formerly Avalanche Sessions) are a top source of meaningful learning and fruitful collisions for Badge Summit attendees.  In response to this, we will prioritizing these sessions by expanding the number of Table Talk sessions offered and by extending each Table Talk to 20 minutes to allow for deeper dialog. Participants have made it clear that these are a lifeblood of what makes the conference special and we are honoring that.

What is the Dream Maker’s Lounge?
For some attendees, the amazing lineup of speakers, panels and sessions might not be the biggest reason to attend because what they are really interested in is the chance to dig in and start creating their own Badge system. The Dream Maker’s Lounge is a dedicated space meant to serve them by providing space and expert guidance from experienced leaders who have already created systems. Perhaps most importantly, the Dream Maker’s Lounge will give its visitors TIME to explore and create around a Badge system that will meet their needs, whatever the scale. 

What are the Fireside Chats?
These are intimate discussions between thought leaders and attendees that are intended to be candid, respectful and completely off the record.  No recording, no reporting.
