Badges and progress attestations
The badges on this site are Open Badges issued by QDNA. They attest to your progress through the lessons, not to a diploma or an official certification.
What a badge attests
A badge attests only to your progress through the lessons of this site: for each lesson of the level, the quiz is passed and a proof of mastery is submitted. It has no value as a diploma, a professional title or a certification recognised by the French state. It is not a training attestation within the meaning of the French Labour Code. QDNA is not a Qualiopi-certified training body.
How it is issued and verified
The badge is a verifiable credential signed by QDNA. It contains the issue date, the level, the criteria, and an opaque learner identifier: neither your name nor your email address appears in it. You can download it from your dashboard, add it to a badge wallet or attach it to a professional profile. Anyone you give it to can check its signature with any Open Badges 3.0 compatible tool, without going through this site: the public key of QDNA is written inside the badge itself.
No ranking
There is no ranking, no daily streak, no overall score. Progress is shown by skill, frame, check, steer, and by proofs submitted. For any question about badges, write to [email protected].
The four badges
Level 1
Beginner
“I say clearly what I want”
Success criterion. Out of ten prompts in the portfolio, at least eight contain the four ingredients, and at least seven produce a usable output after at most one follow-up.
Level 2
Intermediate
“I give the model what it needs to do well”
Success criterion. On the same case, two versions of the prompt are produced and the difference in output is documented; at least three techniques of the level are visible in the final version; the example format is respected on three tries.
Level 3
Advanced
“I make it reason and I make it verify”
Success criterion. On a case of three documents, the synthesis links every statement to a verifiable quotation; a peer checks five statements at random and finds none false; the "not found" section is present and accurate.
Level 4
Expert
“I design prompts that others reuse”
Success criterion. A prompt or an agent is adopted by at least two colleagues; the associated test set scores at least 8 out of 10; the library sheet has a version, a date, a use case, a sample output, known limits and an owner.
