What You'll Need to Do to Claim a Skill Badge

  1. Confirm Your Skill: You’ll need to confirm you have the skill the badge represents. (Required)

  2. Answer Two Questions: Be ready to explain how you use the skill (your actions, strategies, or methods) and give a specific example of when you used it. (Required)

  3. Add Evidence: You can link portfolio files as evidence and collect endorsements to support your skill claim. (Optional)

When you feel your skill is well-proven, seek feedback on your evidence to learn if others see your skill as clearly as you do and how to improve your skill signaling.

Claiming a Skill Badge helps you:

  • Identify what you can do,

  • Explain why you’re capable, and

  • Prove it with evidence.
