Learn the essentials for ensuring the accessibility of instructional materials in these self-paced courses.

We are no longer badging GADER activities for Flex. But, you still have access to any badges acquired from previous GADER events. Copies of badges were sent via email. You can either pull them up by searching your inbox or directly access them through your badge backpack using the following process: 

1.       Go directly to Badgr.

If you have not yet registered, you can create a Badgr account. You should use your GCC email address (if you are teaching at multiple institutions, use the email address you logged in with to attend the activity). 

2.       Go to your Backpack. You will be able to view, print or download your badge in your Backpack.

3.       Click Print Certificate. (Do not click download, this will only give you an image file, which will not be accepted.) For formatting and screen-steps check out the Printing badges in certificate format page.

4.       Click the Save as a PDF option to create a copy of the certificate to upload or print out and attach to your Flex submission. Detailed instructions are available by clicking on the How to Fill & Save Online PDFs tab.
