✨ Open Badges 3.0 · Verifiable Credentials

Digital credentials people are proud to share

The digital credentialing platform to design, issue, and verify tamper-proof Open Badges 3.0 for students, members, employees, and professionals. No per-badge fees, no earner accounts, no enterprise sales calls. Incredible achievements deserve credentials to match.

No per-badge fees · No credit card · No setup fee

Every kind of achievement. Every kind of earner.

Badges aren't just for graduates. They're for the nurse renewing credits, the bootcamp grad landing a first role, the member earning a designation, the employee finishing an academy.

Launch micro-credentials in a single semester

A center for professional studies could design a dozen badges in-house, issue them to hundreds of certificate completers with one CSV upload, and have graduates adding them to LinkedIn the same week, all at a fraction of a legacy vendor quote.

A nursing CE provider could issue credits after each session, let employers verify them against its published keys, and have expired credits show their status instantly. Nobody has to call the registrar.

Stackable credentials

Pathways: small badges, big credentials

Chain badges into pathways with real logic: required courses, learner-chosen electives, bundled options. The moment an earner completes the requirements, the capstone credential is awarded automatically. And pathways stack: a capstone can feed the next pathway up.

No spreadsheets, no manual tracking, no "did they finish everything?" emails.
