Skill Badges are digital representations of skills you claim to have, and you control the evidence you link to your Skill Badges that substantiate your skill claims. Thus, whether a Skill Badge is “recognized” as reliable proof of your claimed abilities depends on the evidence you choose to provide to substantiate your skill claims. Skill Badges are not credentials someone else has awarded to you. Skill Badges are evidence-backed symbols that empower you to paint a full picture of how you’ve developed and used the skill the badge represents.

Use the Skill Badge to articulate your experiences that best prove your skill demonstration in the real world, showcase your portfolio evidence for the claimed skill, and capture your endorsements to prove your skill claims in a more convincing manner than your competitors in the labor market.  We’ve placed the power in your hands to prove you can do what you say you can do.
