What is a digital credential?

A digital credential is a digital representation of a person’s qualifications, achievements, or attributes. It serves as a way to verify and authenticate an individual’s skills or accomplishments in a digital format.

Digital credentials can encompass a wide range of information, including academic degrees, certifications, and other achievements, and in our case you CFP® certificate.

Unlike traditional paper-based credentials, digital credentials are stored electronically and can be easily shared and verified online. We have engaged with “Accredible” who use blockchain technology to ensure the integrity and authenticity of the information they provide.

Digital credentials are becoming increasingly popular in various fields, including education, professional certifications, and workforce development.

They offer a more efficient and secure way to manage and showcase one’s qualifications in the digital age, enabling easy verification and validation by employers, educational institutions, or other relevant parties.

With your digital certificate, your CFP® certification can easily be verified by all stakeholders with up-dated status to anyone attempting to verify it. Your digital gives you verified credibility.

There are many ways you can use your digital certificate:

• Share on LinkedIn

• Add your digital certificate to your email signature

• Download a PDF copy

• Embed you digital certificate on your website
