Make your achievement easy to verify
Share your AGILE-HRP credential with a link to the information behind it.
An AGILE-HRP digital badge provides a shareable representation of an awarded credential. Linked credential information helps colleagues, clients and employers understand the achievement and check the details presented by the issuing system.
Use your badge to connect your professional profile with your certification record. Share its verification link wherever possible so viewers can review the credential information rather than relying on an image alone.
A credential with information behind it
A digital badge brings the visual identity of a credential together with information about the achievement. Depending on the credential and issuing platform, this may include the recipient, credential title, issuer, award date, relevant criteria and status or expiry information.
The verification record is the reference point for understanding the badge. A downloaded image is useful for display, but it does not by itself show whether the credential information is current.

After your certification has been awarded, follow the badge issuance or activation instructions provided through your official certification communications. Check that the email address on your record is correct and review your inbox and spam folder for the relevant message.
If the process requires an account or acceptance step, use the instructions supplied with the invitation. Review the displayed credential information and available privacy settings before sharing publicly. Contact AGILE-HRP if the name, credential title or other details appear incorrect.

What employers and other viewers should check
Review the credential title, named recipient, issuing organization and any dates or status information displayed. Read the achievement criteria to understand what the credential represents. Confirm that the verification page relates to the individual and qualification being presented.
If information is incomplete or an organization's requirements need further evidence, contact the credential holder or AGILE-HRP through an official channel. A badge supports credential verification; it does not substitute for an employer's assessment of role suitability.
