You receive a digital badge image from our partner, Acclaim. Once you visit the Acclaim website and claim your badge, you will have the option to share this digital image that is linked back to detailed metadata on the Acclaim website.

The metadata provides detailed information about your certification.

Representing your credential with a badge gives you the ability to broadcast your skills and tell your professional story online. It also allows you to securely represent your certification across a growing number of social media outlets and forums.

Employers, potential employers and anyone else with whom you wish to share your certification have single-click access to validated credential information.

Acclaim is a product of Credly, the world’s leading learning company. Acclaim is an enterprise-class badging platform based on Mozilla’s Open Badges standards to support the specialized needs of credential issuers, employers and professionals.

The Acclaim platform provides a secure means of credential management and sharing that adds a layer of protection against those who may falsely claim certifications or credentials.

If you don’t want your credential or profile to be visible to the public, you can make them private. If you don’t even want a credential in the form of a badge, you can discard it. All information regarding you and your credentials can be configured within your Acclaim account.

While badges are simply digital image files, they are uniquely linked to data hosted on the Acclaim platform. This link to verified data makes them more reliable and secure than a traditional paper-based credential.

The unique link is associated only with your profile and your certifications.
