A Learning App is a self-paced online course designed to help students expand their knowledge and skills. It provides the learning materials and resources necessary for students to complete their educational goals.

A Badge, on the other hand, is a digital credential that verifies a student has acquired specific knowledge and skills that are valued by employers. Badges are earned after successfully completing a Badge Exam that tests the student's learning from the related app or course.

In simpler terms:

• Learning App = The coursework.

• Badge = The credential or recognition of completing the coursework.
