Celebrating a Successful LMS Transition with Digital Badges

North Carolina Central University (NCCU) transitioned from Blackboard to Canvas last year. A learning management system (LMS) transition requires discovering and implementing tools as well as applying course design best practices. Blackboard was the primary LMS at the institution for over 20 years. Strategic and innovative ideas were implemented to influence a successful Canvas transition. Therefore, the NCCU Office of e-Learning issued digital badges to celebrate and incentivize faculty and staff members who attended Canvas training. Training participants learned how to integrate design skills into Canvas course shells and/or sandboxes.
