= How to issue Webmaker Mentor and Web Literacy badges =
This page is a guide for Webmaker Super Mentors helping issue [https://webmaker.org/badges/webmaker-mentor Webmaker Mentor] and Web Literacy badges. The procedures for issuing both types of badges are the same. They can be issued either directly or as a result of being pledged for.

Note that with great power comes great responsibility. Ensure that the person you are issuing the badge to has met the relevant criteria. Issuing badges like confetti depreciates the value of the badge for everyone. 

== Issue badges directly ==

# Go to https://webmaker.org/admin/badges
# Choose the badge you want to issue 
# Enter the email address for the person who you want to receive the badge
# Press the 'Issue new badge' button
# Done! (the recipient will receive a standard email)
