BookBadge turns the books you read into skills you can prove. Reading a book is easy. Using it in a real conversation, a negotiation or a planning meeting is the hard part. BookBadge tests exactly that, with real situations instead of trivia, and gives you a certificate anyone can check. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick a goal Land the raise, lead a company, hold a room, run a team, start a company and more. Each goal names the skills it takes and the rank each skill needs. 2. Take a 3-minute skill check Five real situations per skill. You see what you can already apply and what you can't yet. Your first pass earns rank E. 3. Read the chapter for each gap Every book is split into chapters with a short test each. Chapter tests are free with an account. 4. Pass the applied exam Multiple choice plus written answers, graded with feedback on accuracy, understanding, application and clarity. Score 85 or higher to pass. 5. Earn your certificate Every certificate has a public check page and can be added to LinkedIn with every field filled in. CLIMB EVERY SKILL FROM F TO S Each skill has seven ranks. Skill checks, chapter tests and the applied exam move you up, and the top ranks ask you to log real uses at work. Your skill certificate moves up with you.
