Take Classes, Earn Badges

With each badge you earn, you increase your credentials, your experiences, and your opportunities!

Through completing groups of courses, students can earn four different "badges," all of which add up to the "Complete Musician Program"

Upon completion of each badge, students get a custom certificate, signed by the instructor, indicating which badges they have completed so far. In addition, the completion of each badge can be used on a resume or profile to show completion of a larger series of work - not just a single class.

FAQ

What Does the Badge Look Like?

If you completed all four badges, the best way to list it on a resume would be under education, like this:

Complete Musician Program (Music Production, Ableton Live, Music Theory, and Composition), Punkademic Courses Online, [date completed]

Is This Like an Accredited Degree?

The term "badge" in academic circles is gaining traction, and one that colleges are becoming familiar with. Many universities are offering "badge" programs, similar to this, in which someone can earn something smaller than a full degree, but more than a single course.

This is not a college degree, but it shows that you've worked hard at something, and stuck with something for a significant amount of time. That can be valuable to show to a future employer or a future college.

How Do I Get My Badge?

Once you have finished all the courses in your badge program, submit the form above. That will generate an email to Punkademic, and we will reply with your badge, and any necessary information. Make sure your name appears exactly how you want it to on the badge when you fill out the form.

The most affordable way to achieve any of the badges, is through our subscription program. That will give you access to all of the courses on this website for a low monthly rate. If you don't do that, you will need to purchase each course separately.
