Last month, we launched our beautifully redesigned standard badges which include number of replies, comments, kudos, etc. We also introduced the new Anniversary badge, Group Member badge, and Group Leader icon. This month, we are all about Academy! We will be launching badges for completion of Level 1-3 training and the Anaplan Way course, as well as badges for Trainers, Certified Model Builders, Solution Architects and individuals who complete the Anaplan Platform bootcamp. Lastly, we will be deploying a newly designed Master Anaplanner badge. More on the way in September, so stay tuned!
