== Introduction == The idea behind the Merit Badge system is to create a bootstrap path for people seeking to learn practical, technical subjects relatively quickly. It is intended to be organic and non-limiting, while simultaneously providing a small amount of basic structure. Initially, Merit Badges are intended to convey entry-level competency: after completing the requirements for a given badge, it is intended that the student should then be capable of taking on projects in that discipline in a more or less self directed manner. Several groups of Badges have been grouped together into "clusters"; in this case, the Student should, after completing the required badges, finish a Cluster by completing an original project with the help of their SME. Each Merit Badge had three essential components: * '''Goals''' -- Each Merit Badge provides a specific set of goals or requirements; generally these consist of between 5 and 10 points, many of which will have some number of component sub-requirements. These requirements are meant to be a guide which will provide a hands-on introductory tour of the discipline in question. * '''Reference Material''' -- Each Merit Badge should have a corresponding set of articles, videos and/or links to guide the student through the above Goals. * '''Subject Matter Experts''' -- Each Merit Badge will have a list of local Subject Matter Experts, people who are willing and able to provide mentoring and directin to the learning experience. The SMEs are also responsible for "signing off" that the student has completed each requirement.
