There a many potential earners for a Moodle badge, e.g.
1. Non-editing teachers who take over a ready-made course on a Moodle platform. They will need to understand the existing activities and be able to use them as teachers. e.g. grading assignments, monotoring student activity.
2. Course editors. As there is no such thing as a once and for all ready-made course, most teachers will very quickly want to move on from non-editing teachers to teachers with editing rights. They need to learn how to use the editing tools and which settings they should select for every one of the learning activities in their course.
3. Administrative staff who are not educators themselves, but help less digital teachers to publish materials.
4. Course creators who, hopefully, are digitally competent and have some experience from online learning and teaching. They need to understand the pedagogical potential and limitations of the platform.
5. Explorers. Teachers and others who want to futher develop their own and their students’ online learning. They might want to share experiences with other explorers, integrate their moodle courses with other learning environments, etc.
The ideal learning situation and content depend a lot on the individual teachers' digital competence and their goals. The variation of paths towards a badge that I mentioned earlier should give all teachers opportunities to move forward.
