UXD Talks Xperience

Xperience & Badges Tour

A simple guide to XP, badges, badge tiers, and how your learning progress grows on UXD Talks.

What is XP?

XP is your overall UXD Talks Xperience score. It grows when you read articles, like useful content, take quizzes, attend UXD Talks events, and complete other eligible learning actions.

What is a badge?

A badge shows the domain, field, skill, or knowledge area where you are growing. Reading and taking quizzes in the same category builds that badge, while deeper progress moves you into higher tiers.
