CNet partners with digital credential platform provider Credly (owned by Pearson) to award digital badges. Digital badges help support both individuals and businesses by having an easily identifiable way to recognise talent and reward accomplishments. The badges offer significant value to professionals by creating a strong visual tool that can help enhance employee recognition as well as strengthen job profiles for those seeking new career opportunities.

We have partnered with Credly to translate the learning outcomes you’ve demonstrated into a badge, issued and managed through the company’s Platform. The technology used on the Platform is based on the Open Badge Standards maintained by IMS Global. This enables you to manage, share and verify your competencies digitally.
Credly is the end-to-end solution for issuing and managing digital credentials. Credly works with credible organisations to provide digital credentials to individuals, worldwide through the platform.
The Credly platform is where the individual's Digital Badges are issued, stored and accessed by learners. When issued with a badge individuals are invited to create an account from which they can view, share and store all of their Digital Badges.
Representing your skills and certifications as a badge gives you a way to share your abilities online in a way that is simple, trusted and can be easily verified in real time. Badges provide employers and peers concrete evidence of what you had to do to earn your credential and what you’re now capable of.
You will receive an email notification from Credly with instructions for claiming your badge and setting up your account.
You can easily configure your privacy settings in the Platform. You’re in complete control of the information about yourself that is made public.
No. This is a service we provide to you, at no cost.
While badges are simply digital image files, they are uniquely linked to data hosted on the Platform. This link to verifies the data and makes them more reliable and secure than a paper-based certificate.

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