The Learning Journey

The Learning Journey is a digital record that provides a comprehensive view of a student’s achievements, skills, and competencies, extending beyond traditional transcripts. The Learning Journey feature is best suited for Institutions performing Program Assessment that have gone through a complete assessment cycle, which includes:

Unlike traditional transcripts, which primarily list courses and grades, the Learning Journey includes a broader range of learning experiences, such as:

  • Coursework and Grades – Traditional academic achievements are displayed as skills and experiences

  • Competencies and Skills – Verified skills gained through coursework, projects, and assessments

  • Certifications and Badges – Industry-recognized credentials

The Learning Journey is designed to help students showcase their full range of skills and knowledge to employers and educators. It uses digital credentials and structured data formats, which make it easier to share and verify a comprehensive learner record. By navigating through the digital credentials tabs (1), skills and experiences, badges, and personal experiences can be viewed in detail (2).

For example, a student graduating with a business degree may apply for a job in the marketing field. Instead of submitting a traditional transcript, they can share their Learning Journey, which highlights the following:

  • A digital badge in data analytics earned through a project-based course

  • A case study competition that they participated in with real-world business challenges

  • An internship experience at a startup, demonstrating applied skills

  • Leadership as the Vice President of the Marketing Club

With the Learning Journey, an employer can see a comprehensive, skills-based record, making a student stand out among other applicants
