## Abstract
29+
30+
An extension to Open Badges that allows inserting American Council for Education credit recommendations and learning evaluation data.
31+
32+
## Overview
33+
34+
## Introduction{.informative}
35+
36+
This extension provides information about ACE's learning evaluation and credit recommendations for an Achievement. It allows for the inclusion of ACE's credit recommendations and learning evaluation data within the Open Badges framework.
37+
38+
To ensure integrity and verifiability, this information is embedded in an `OpenBadgeCredential` as an `EndorsementCredential`. This way, the information can be easily verified by a verifier using common Verifiable Credentials patterns.
39+
40+
Issuer MAY opt to embed ACE's `EndorsementCredential` directly within the Achievement, so it's embedded in subsequents `OpenBadgeCredential`s.
41+
42+
### Use cases{.informative}
43+
44+
* Describe the ACE's credit recommendations of an Achievement.
45+
* Describe the ACE's learning evaluation of an Achievement.
46+
47+
### Terminology
48+
49+
The terminology used in this document is consistent with the terminology established in the Open Badges 3.0 specification [[OB-30]].
50+
51+
ACE
52+
: American Council of Education
53+
54+
### Document Set
55+
56+
#### Normative Documents
57+
58+
Open Badges 3.0
59+
: Main specification of this extension: [[[OB-30]]].
60+
61+
JSON Schema
62+
: The JSON Schema defines the syntactical restrictions of this extension: <https://purl.imsglobal.org/spec/ob-ace/v1p0/schema/ob_ace_v1p0_endorsementcredential_schema.json>.
63+
64+
JSON-LD Context
65+
: The JSON-LD context defines mappings for the terms used in this specification to their canonical IRIs: <https://purl.imsglobal.org/spec/ob-ace/v1p0/context/context-1.0.0.json>.
66+
67+
Errata
68+
: The errata details any erratum registered for this version of this specification since its publication [[OB-ACE-10-ERRATA]].
69+
70+
### Extendable Badge Objects
71+
72+
`EndorsementSubject`, with the new type `ACEEndorsementSubject`
73+
74+
#### ACEEndorsementSubject
75+
76+
The `ACEEndorsementSubject` class is used to represent credit recommendations and learning evaluations from the ACE.
77+
78+
##### ACE ID
79+
80+
Each organization that receives an ACE endorsement is assigned a unique ACE ID. Since there's already an `identifier` property the Open Badges specification, which allows endorsers to include aditional identifiers of the recipient of a credential, the ACE ID can be expressed using that property. Therefore, ACE ID are expressed in the `ACEEndorsementSubject` as an identifier with its identityType with the value `ext:ACEId`.
81+
82+
##### CTID
83+
84+
Each organization registered in ACE is assigned a CTID from the Credential Registry. Since there's already an `identifier` property the Open Badges specification, which allows endorsers to include aditional identifiers of the recipient of a credential, the CTID can be expressed using that property. Therefore, CTID are expressed in the `ACEEndorsementSubject` as an identifier with its identityType with the value `ext:CTId`.
85+
86+
##### Minimum Passing Score
87+
88+
ACE capture and publish a minimum percentage passing score that is required for a learner to earn the credential. This helps institutions align the credit recommendations with their policies for transfer courses, which might require "a C or better" or similar language in order to accept a credential for credit. The Open Badges specification already has a `ResultDescription` entity, which allows issuers to define results of an achievement. Therefore, the minimum passing score can be expressed using that entity.
89+
90+
##### Credit Recommendation notes
91+
92+
An ACE Learning Evaluation contains an optional credit recommendation note to capture any nuance needed to accurately use the recommendations. Since the `EndorsementSubject` already has the property `endorsementComment`, which allows endorsers to make a simple claim in writing about the entity, this property can be used to convey the credit recommendation note.
93+
94+
##### Link to National Guide
95+
96+
The link to the National Guide Client is expressed in the `ACEEndorsementSubject` as an `Alignment` object with its `targetType` with the value `ext:ACENationalGuide`.
97+
98+
##### Competencies
99+
100+
A Learning Evaluation can also validate workplace competencies at the request of the National Guide Client. These competences are expressed in the `ACEEndorsementSubject` as `Alignment` objects, with an appropriate `targetType`.
101+
102+
## Data Model
103+
104+
At the top level is a very simple ACEEndorsementSubject object that contains the learning evaluation and credit recommendations.
