    posted message: Forgive me if my question is sophomoric, but I'm fairly new to P2PU; which badge can I earn by taking this course? Wouldn't it seem logical that the Open Badges course awards you a badge in the end? It wasn't immediately clear if there was a badge for successfully completing this course.

    Good question John. Currently you can only earn a 'helpful feedback' badge, but I am looking into how we can change that to add a badge for completion. :)

    Thanks for the prompt response! I hope you can get that figured out soon; it greatly increases the appeal of a course to have one.

    I do graphic design, so if you'd like some help designing a badge I would love to take a shot at it.

    Cheers!

    Hey John- I missed this post or I would have taken you up on the offer. Peter and I are working on some new badges courses. Would you like to help out?

    Yes, John... if your still hanging around in the open badges realm assistance with graphics would be outstanding... were strting to put together a school of open badges and need another set of eyes with good design sense.
