Digital badges

Digital badges are electronic credentials that recognize specific skills, achievements, or knowledge. They serve as a visual marker, often with verified details, that can be shared online—such as on social media, resumes, or digital portfolios—to demonstrate expertise in a particular area. Unlike traditional certificates, digital badges are easily transferable and verifiable, allowing learners and professionals to showcase their competencies digitally. They are commonly used in education, training, and professional development to provide a flexible and credible way to validate accomplishments.
