Unlocking Badges
After you watch videos and learn, you can prove your knowledge by passing Quizzes or taking Code Challenges. Once you do, you’ll unlock a Treehouse Badge, which will appear on your public profile. For example: teamtreehouse.com/ryancarson
Here’s the CSS Selectors Quiz in action …
Here’s the HTML Lists Challenge in action …
Here’s a small portion of our ‘Badge Map’ which shows you the landscape of Topics we currently cover. We’ll be adding new Badges every month.
Your Public Profile
As you unlock badges, your profile begins to build and you can share it publicly, like this: teamtreehouse.com/ryancarson
Get hired by Living Social, WordPress, Bank Simple …
We’ve partnered with amazing companies like WordPress/Automattic, Living Social and Bank Simple. They’ve agreed to look to recruit Treehouse Members who have unlocked a certain set of Badges, like Ruby Foundations, Design Foundations, Advanced Rails, etc.
It’s an amazing way to get in front of these world-class companies and get your dream job.
Get Started for Free
All the videos under the HTML Badge are free to view, so feel free to head over to Treehouse and give it a whirl! 🙂

Awesome awesome awesome! I am not a programmer, but the quality and ease of the site makes me want to jump right in! Kudos! 🙂
Awesome blog. I enjoyed reading your articles. This is truly a great read for me.
Tried it at last, good old Virgin Media decided to go all coma on me on release day, but I finally managed to get in properly. First impressions, outstanding!! Seriously, this is the future of learning, it’s like knowledge with Xbox Achievements 🙂
Awesome work on the site. Love the responsive layout too. Looking forward to the Rails tutorials to expan on those that are now archived.
Big congrats to the launch. Looks amazing 🙂
One question: What happened to the “Designer”-Audition? I know you hired @ty:twitter , but the rest? Will you make a blog post or something?
Hi Matthias, I got about 1/2 way through e-mailing all the candidates and then the launch happened. I’m going to try to finish doing that soon. I’m not sure we’ll blog about it though.
Yeah, I can imagine that it is/was a very stressfull time 🙂
Anyway… congrats to you and the team!
Thanks! 🙂
wow this is so cool gamification in practice and it works!!!!
4 badges so far! This is my way of learning. Is like playing starcraft but with knowledgement. I can’t wait for ruby on rails badges XD.
I can’t find the way to change the treehouse logo with my photo on my profile. But anyway, Treehouse is awesome!
Hi Jordi – we haven’t explained it, so it’s not your fault 🙂 Please go to http://en.gravatar.com/ and create an account. This image will be used across many sites, so it’s worth doing. Thanks!
Really cool… Except than I cannot play any of the vids… I’m running LIONxSAFARI and I have a Gold Membership… When I click the “play” button, nothing happens, except the 1st frame I guess.
HI Erwan,
I’m really sorry! Can you please send a screen grab to help@teamtreehouse.com and we’ll look right in to that.
Thanks,
Ryan
Just did! Thanks a lot!
Hey Ryan, I also had the same issue – had to skip past the trailer/welcome video.
That font is terrible on Windows/Chrome. Treehouse is almost completely unreadable with below-average eyesight, I have to change it in inspector or use Firefox to actually read anything on the site. Why do people insist on using such poor rendering fonts, ignoring accessibility is not the future of the fucking web.
We’re looking in to this right now
Hey Ryan. Is the plan to still update this Think Vitamin blog, or will the blog migrate to a Treehouse blog?
Hey Adam,
It’ll stay at thinkvitamin.com 🙂
