BadgeOS Sensei Add-On

BadgeOS Sensei Add-On

BadgeOS achievements and badges earned from virtually any Sensei learning management system activity.

The "BadgeOS Sensei Add-on" allows learners to earn achievements and badges from virtually every course, lesson and quiz activity available in the Sensei learning management system. When activated, BadgeOS admins will see a new "Sensei" menu in their "Required Steps" manager when editing or creating any achievement or badge.

Note: You will need to install the free BadgeOS plugin™ (version 1.3 or higher) to use the BadgeOS Sensei Add-on. You will also need the Sensei plugin v1.4.2 or higher installed, available from WooThemes.

Get the BadgeOS plugin. Get the Sensei plugin.

BadgeOS™ turns your WordPress site into an achievement and badging system. And with Sensei enabled on your site, badges are not only awarded by activities such as making submissions, earning points, completing required achievements, and making site and community contributions, but also by completing Sensei courses, lessons, courses and quizzes. Define the achievements, organize the badge requirements any way you like, and choose from and combine a range of BadgeOS and Sensei activity options to determine whether each task or requirement has been achieved.

Earned badges are Open Badge compatible and sharable via Credly, the free web service for displaying, storing and managing lifelong achievement.

• Easily define achievements that rely on both BadgeOS required steps and Sensei actions
• Easily link together one or more triggers, steps or actions into the conditions needed to earn any badge or mark an achievement.

Sensei Badges are Lifelong Achievements with Credly Integration

• As badges are earned on WordPress using BadgeOS and Sensei, they can be automatically sent to Credly for lifelong storage, management, and sharing on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Mozilla Backpack, the earner's own web site, blog, or Credly profile.
• Badges you create in BadgeOS automatically appear and update on Credly, the home for storing and managing lifelong achievements.
• As with the BadgeOS core plugin, Sensei badges are Mozilla Open Badge (OBI) compatible through integration of the "Open Credit" API by Credly, the free web service for issuing, earning and sharing badges.
• Use the Credly iOS app to issue Sensei badges you created on your WordPress/BadgeOS/Sensei site.

**Display Badges on User Profiles with Free Community Add-on **

• Activate the free "BadgeOS Community Add-On" and "BuddyPress" plugins to add a range of user community functions, including the ability to display earned badges and achievements on user profiles for others to see.
