Open Badge

An Open Badge is a digital certification that validate and showcase the knowledge, skills and competencies acquired. Open Badges are recognised worldwide, can be included in electronic curricula and shared on social networks.

Our badges

The Centro Linguistico di Ateneo (Ca’ Foscari Language Centre) issues the following Open Badges:

  • English B1 (on passing OFA B1)

The University Language Centre (CLA) issues B1 and B2 English Open Badges for those who pass OFAB1 and CLAB2 respectively, in addition to the various badges awarded at the end of the Language Centre's 75-hour language courses. Writing Skills and Speaking Skills badges are also available, for which it is necessary to attend - in the same or different sessions, but within two years of completion of the first module - a module defined as "basic" (Improve your writing or Advanced Conversation) + 2 additional modules of your choice.

The CLA also issues certificates of registration and of attendance and achievement to learners who attend 80% of the language course hours and pass the final test, where required.

Once an Open Badge has been awarded, you must retrieve it. For more information on how to obtain, use, and make the most of your digital certificates, visit the Open Badges and digital certificates page.
