We are committed to providing you with the tools necessary to achieve your professional goals and as you will have seen in our recent ‘Releasing the Power of our Profession’ strategy we are dedicated to delivering the individual and collective recognition that our sector workforce needs and deserves.
An integral part of supporting greater professional recognition is enabling your clients, colleagues, and potential employers to understand your professional status, including your experience, skills and specialisms. To help with this, we’ve recently started piloting digital badges which can be displayed across online communication channels and allow you to showcase your achievements.
What is a digital badge?
A digital badge is a digital representation of a learning outcome, experience or competency that can be shared and verified online in a way that is easy and secure.
They link to verified data which makes them more reliable and secure than a paper-based certificate.
Why do I need a digital badge?
We are currently piloting digital badges with CIMSPA Chartered Members and Enhancing Training Provider Partners. This pilot will run over the next few months, and we will then be looking at the possibility of offering digital badges to parts of our membership and partners network.
If you are a Chartered Member and would like to get involved, please contact our Chartered Lead George Sheldon via george.sheldon@cimspa.co.uk.
