What Are Achievements?

clickUP Ultra achievements provide a way to recognize and reward students for their accomplishments. By setting specific criteria, you can issue achievements in the form of badges to students who meet the requirements.

Students can view badges and see what they need to do to achieve additional recognition. This feature offers valuable insight into their learning progression and progress toward defined competencies.

• AI Badge Image Creator: Instructors can enter keywords to generate badge images using the AI Design Assistant.

Images are optimized for circular cropping to match the standard badge shape.
