Infozyne Releases Open-Source 'COMPEITO' Supporting the CASE Standard Linked to Open Badge FactoryA · FULL TRANSLATION
- Infozyne released the open-source software 'COMPEITO'
- COMPEITO supports the international CASE standard defined by 1EdTech
- It interoperates with Open Badge Factory's (OBF) CASE support
- CASE is the standard for Competency and Academic Standards Exchange
- It helps institutions standardize management of competencies and digital badges
Structuring educational 'competency standards' via the international CASE format, then linking digital badges with the open-source tool COMPEITO, matters because it turns 'what competency was learned' into machine-readable data that flows across systems, not just a certificate or credit.
Open Badges only become useful if 'competency' has a common definition; CASE is that shared language. Infozyne going open source lowers adoption barriers and fosters an ecosystem. As Japan and Taiwan push lifelong learning and reskilling, such standardized infrastructure is the foundation for portable, verifiable skills. Will standardized, badged competencies make education fairer, or reduce it to quantifiable labels?
Infozyne (Taito, Tokyo; President Susumu Murata) announced that, in line with Open Badge Factory's (OBF) support for CASE, it has released the open-source software 'COMPEITO,' which supports the international CASE (Competency and Academic Standards Exchange) standard defined by 1EdTech.
CASE is an international specification for describing 'competencies' and 'academic standards' in a structured, exchangeable way. COMPEITO supports this standard and interoperates with Open Badge Factory's CASE features, letting educational institutions manage competency definitions and digital badges more systematically.
By releasing COMPEITO as open source, Infozyne lowers the adoption barrier for institutions, aiming to foster the growth of the related ecosystem.
