The UNE Badging program is a non-credit bearing service that digitally validates knowledge, skill sets, qualifications, and competencies in a given area. Each badge offered through the cores was developed by each core directors and managers to reflect the mastery of multiple integrated competencies or outcomes achieved over a series of activities.
