'''''What does an "open badge ecosystem" look like -- and how can it benefit you?''''' Any '''BADGE ISSUER '''(for example, an after-school programs, free online course, or vocational institute) can award certified '''BADGES''' to learners like you. Learns can then collect and manage their badges in a '''BADGE BACKPACK'''. This makes it easy to display your skills and achievements across a range of different '''DISPLAY SITES''' -- from your personal resume or web site, to social networking profiles, to employment sites. The result? Jobs, new learning opportunities and unlocked privileges.

== Mozilla's Open Badge Infrastructure  ==
 
The Open Badges framework is designed to allow any learner to collect badges from multiple sites, tied to a single identity, and then share them out across various sites -- from their personal blog or web site to social networking profiles. The infrastructure needs to be open to allow anyone to issue badges, and for each learner to carry the badges with them across the web and other contexts.
