What badges are currently available?

The Collaborative hiring badge is available on-demand through Learn Greenhouse. This badge is issued when you complete a series of courses on foundational best practices in collaborative hiring through Greenhouse Recruiting.

Areas of focus include:

  • Collaborative sourcing
  • Collaborative interviewing
  • Collaborative decision-making
  • Collaborative reporting

 

Do I have to create a Credly account?

Yes, because you can't share a digital badge unless you have an account with a verified email. Linking a badge to a verified email address ensures your credentials cannot be claimed by anyone but you. This means anyone viewing the badge is able to verify that it was you who earned it.

 

Does my badge have to be public?

No, you are free to make your profile or an individual badge private. However, private profiles and badges are not verifiable, so if you tell someone you have a certification, but it's private, that person cannot verify its authenticity.

 

Is there a fee to use Credly?

No, Credly is free to use.
