As you’ve explored the E-Learning Heroes community, you might have encountered labels and badges on other members’ accounts and wondered what they meant. Or perhaps you’re wondering how to unlock specific labels and badges on your own account.
In this article, we’ve got all your questions covered! Let’s dig in!
Member Labels
Any time a community member posts a comment, article, or example, you’ll see a small blue label next to their name, like the one in the screenshot below.
These labels tell you more about their role in the community. Plus, labels like Staff or Super Hero are handy ways to quickly find ELH members who can give you some extra help. You’ll find all the labels and their meanings in the table below.
