Digital Badges for Employee Training

Recognise Employee Learning with Digital Badges

Empower your L&D and HR teams to reward, validate, and amplify workforce development with verifiable digital credentials.

Why Digital Badges for Employee Training

In today’s fast-paced corporate environment, training outcomes often remain invisible to external audiences. With Certify’s digital badges, you transform internal achievements into credible, shareable credentials that both employees and organisations can benefit from.

  • Create tangible recognition: turn training, certifications, upskilling, and micro-learning into credentials your workforce can own.
  • Build motivation and accountability: seeing their efforts recognised encourages continuous learning.
  • Strengthen your employer brand: shared badges appear on platforms like LinkedIn, promoting your company as a learning organisation.
