Stand out from the crowd
Representing your skills as digital credentials gives you a way to share your abilities online in a way that is simple, trusted and can be easily verified in real time. 50 million digital credentials have been earned and managed on Credly, with over 700,000, shared every month by badge earners all over the world.
Digital credentials have built-in metadata that provide details of your skills and competencies and the requirements to achieve these credentials. This provides employers and your professional network with concrete evidence of what you had to do to earn your credentials and what you’re now capable of.
Remove the stress from CV writing
Choosing what to include and what to leave off our CV can be overwhelming.
Digital credentials take all that hassle away!
The metadata of skills and competencies within these credentials help you to build a better professional picture of who you are and the skills that you have to offer. This helps take away the struggle of CV writing and gives you a better understanding of your own strengths and builds your confidence in articulating these.
Maximise progression opportunities
Credly’s digital credentials platform can connect you to job opportunities based on your skills set as it gives you access to live job insights. This means you can search job listings based on the skills you've gained and see which employers are hiring.
Digital credentials also help employers to easily identify candidates with the competencies to match their recruitment needs through the detailed metadata of skills and competencies which uses language frequently used in job descriptions and is recognised by employers.
What is Credly by Pearson?
Credly translates the learning outcomes you’ve demonstrated into digital credentials and a profile, issued and managed through the Pearson digital credentials platform. The technology Credly uses is based on the Open Badge Standards maintained by IMS Global. This enables you to manage, share and verify your competencies digitally.
