Digital Badges
We’ve selected eight badges based on the skills and competencies that employers are seeking, according to NACE (National Association of Colleges and Employers) research. You can earn points toward these badges during your time at Moravian by attending lectures, joining student organizations, participating in research, studying abroad, and more. You can feature your completed badges on your resume or portfolio and highlight them during job interviews—they’re a perfect digital record for highlighting all of your hard work outside of the classroom.
The eight Career Readiness Digital Badges are:
Career & Self-Development
Leadership
Communication
Professionalism
Critical Thinking
Teamwork
Equity & Inclusion
Technology
Your Career Development Strategist will be your go-to resource for the Career Readiness Badges. They’ll have all the information about how you earn and track your points (download the Suitable app!), what events and activities count toward what badges, and how you should plan your Elevate experience to meet the requirements. While earning these digital badges is not a requirement to graduate from Moravian, it is highly encouraged because of the excellent benefits you’ll receive!
The Career Promise
If you choose to complete all eight badges before graduation and you meet the GPA expectation, you’ll be eligible for Moravian’s Career Promise. That means, if you’re not employed or in graduate school within one year of graduating from Moravian, you’ll qualify for financial support to assist with paying off your student loans, as well as free enrollment in select undergraduate or graduate courses, and continued support from your advising team.
We’re making this investment in our students because we believe that the Elevate experience will prepare them for whatever comes next and our Career Readiness Digital Badges can prove it.
