What are digital badges?

Digital badges are secure, verifiable credentials you can share on LinkedIn, social media, résumés, and job applications. Each badge highlights a specific skill you’ve mastered, giving employers a clear, trusted way to see your strengths. A digital badge also serves as the electronic version of the paper certificate students receive upon completion.
