I have successfully completed all 3 phases of the DigitalEd.ie Professional Services Pathway and have received my Professional Services Digital Champion badge. The journey involved completing a number of Microsoft Badge Courses, some All Aboard courses along with a 2-hour training course of my choice with evidence of skills sharing. I applied for the badges in order of Explorer, Adventurer then Navigator to receive the champion badge! The range of resources presented in the pathway, covered the knowledge and skills to enable me to enhance my skills and confidence in a variety of different digital technologies.
Checkout the DigitalEd.ie Professional Services Pathway for more information. Interestingly I had started the journey sometime ago, unintentionally of course. I have been engaged with the All Aboard digital journey for some time, with a number of badges collected over the years. And the Microsoft Education Centre has been on my radar for a year or so now, completing short course on integrating technology into my work. Definitely a case for recognition of prior learning!

Delighted to have received my digital badge after achieving all the learning outcomes of the course:
Footprints: Here’s my advice for future participants considering signing up for the L2L PACT course. Be committed, be realistic about the time commitment and be ready to be part of a team… or as you will become to know it a TRIAD. The triad offers an opportunity for conversation, sharing ideas & experiences, talking to peers from different institutions and career pathways and learning from them. Yes, many of the activities are completed individually (make sure you stay up to date with the activities) but many of discussions happen within your TRIAD, you’ll collaborate as critical peers to be awarded the digital badge -- all three peers bear the load (resembling the sides to a triangle). Stay connected and remember to enjoy the journey! I am now working towards the PACT L2L Facilitator Badge! The Professional Development Framework, for staff who teach in higher education offers five separate areas, known as domains, to assist staff in exploring how they might structure their personal and professional development as teachers or, for us librarians as, teaching librarians.
Here is how I would explain the domains in less than 250 words!
