Setting up a statement of participation

Once you’re satisfied that the badge(s) works correctly, you can set up a statement of participation (SoP). If you set this up earlier, you will need to go back into it to add the badges, and you might find that your test account receives a SoP that is not complete.

To set up a statement of participation, first go to the Add a block block (under the Administration block) and select ‘Achievements’ from the drop-down list.

In the new Achievements block, click on the cog symbol and select Configure Achievements block.

In the Block settings form that appears you can amend the default message in the Email text box to suit your course’s needs.

Add the Provide name and upload a logo into the Provider logo box. The logo will appear on the top of the statement of participation. Make sure you include the appropriate copyright holder information in the Author field in the File picker.

If you would like to include the badge(s) on the statement of participation, tick the Include “[the name of your badge]” badge in statement of participation tickbox. This is shown on the second page of the document.

Then click on Save changes.

In the Achievements block you can click on View a test Statement of participation to see what the newly created SoP looks like.

The alternative to using the SoP is a Moodle custom certificate.
