The DMA has launched a groundbreaking program called DMA Friends that makes the museum free to everyone, and deepens its relationship with visitors and the community. Our team designed a badge-empowered engagement system available on iPad kiosks, SMS, and the web that offers visitors progressive levels of rewards and benefits as they engage with museum resources, events and the world at large. The backbone of the entire system is BadgeOS. The Credly Open Credit API is at the heart of the system’s automated badge sharing, sending credit received while interacting with the museum to social networks. Learn more about DMA Friends.
