This item introduces two major concepts to the badge ecosystem. The first is the idea of 'endorsement', which "promises to resolve recurring questions about the "credibility of badges" by providing third party validation that can be formal (like accreditation) or informal ("fits our purpose"). Endorsement can also strengthen collaboration, increase portability and encourage the development of meaningful badge ecosystems." The second is the idea of a 'recognition network' where issuers recognize each others' badges (and hence would allow each others' credentials to be stacked with their own).
