By Tara García Mathewson, Education Dive

Learning Machine, an ed tech company that offers data-driven software to help admissions officers shape their incoming classes, has partnered with Credly, which created a platform to give, receive and display digital badges and credentials. Campus Technology reports the partnership will give admissions officers the opportunity to consider competency-based learning experiences from prospective students. Dan Hughes, president and COO of Learning Machine says he expects digital credentials to become a standard part of the admissions process and “the common currency of a global job market.”
