IT Professional Badge FAQs

You may still have questions after reviewing the Certification Guide. See below for frequently asked questions and answers.

People also ask:

1. What is an open badge?

Open badges are web-enabled versions of a credential, certification, or learning outcome that can be verified online in real time.

2. How does my certification get displayed as a badge?

Each certification badge is issued and managed through Credly, which is based on the Open Badge Standards maintained by IMS Global. You can manage, share, and verify your competencies digitally through Credly.

3. How will I know if I’ve earned a badge?

You will receive an email notification from Credly with instructions for setting up your account and claiming your badge.

4. What if I don’t want my badge to be public?

You can configure your privacy settings in Credly. You’re in complete control of the information about yourself that is made public.

5. What prevents others from copying my badge and using it?

Badges are data image files that are uniquely identified to data hosted by Credly. The link to the verified data makes them more reliable and secure than a paper-based certificate. It also eliminates the possibility of anyone claiming your credential and your associated identity.

6. Where and how can I share my badge through Credly?

Share your badge directly from Credly on LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook. You can use it in email, on a website, and in your email signature.

7. Can I export badges issued through Credly to other badge-storing platforms?

Yes. You can download your badge from the Credly Share Badge page. Your downloaded badge contains Open Badge Infrastructure (OBI) metadata. This allows you to store your badge on the other OBI-compliant badge sites, such as the Mozilla backpack.

8. Can I download a PDF file of my certification?

Yes. Start by logging in to Credly.com. Make sure to check your email for the initial information from Credly, as this will be essential. Once you're logged in, look for the "Share Badge" option. Within the "Share Badge" option, you'll notice a section called "Publish" on the right side of the screen. Here, you can find the "Download Certificate" button. Click on "Download PDF," and your certification will be saved in PDF format.
