5 adult education and training organisations have joined in the Open Badges for Adult Education project to develop the concept of open badges in their environment and to test it with adults who are far from employment and belong to groups at risk of exclusion. 100 badges were initially created to promote attitudes and behaviours sought by employers and key competences for lifelong learning. As a result of the project, more than 90 trainers from 50 different organizations assigned more than 600 badges to more than 300 adults. Guides have been produced to show the interest of badges: valorising skills acquired through informal learning, maintaining motivation throughout a learning path, building confidence and self-esteem, digital acculturation, empowerment regarding one's abilities, easier presentation during a job interview, etc. Tutorials are available for the practical aspects: How to create a badge? How to manage your badges?... The different experiences of creating and assigning badges with their integration into training systems and the feedback from the various stakeholders are described in a collection of practices. They are available to give ideas to education stakeholders who want to be informed and better understand the various possibilities before engaging. All results are available in the five languages of the partnership, German, Spanish, French, Slovenian, Swedish and English at www.open-badges.eu.
