The digital badge thing sounds a little funny. Industry certifications are certainly important and have gained respect over the past 10 or 20 years. I think the regional accreditors should innovate a little and provide some sort of CLEP exam equivalent at the graduate level. There is already a delivery channel for CLEP so why not just ride those rails? I could see taking HRM5000, intro to HR management at the grad level as a CLEP. The entire MBA, minus a capstone could be CLEPped out of.
