Validating someone's Cert

[dcontesti]

I am wondering how or if I can validate someone's cert?

I know I could do this several years ago, but can't seem to find the link.

Anyone know how?

Thanks

Hey, no worries - extra validation is always welcome! 🙂

Whatever happened to people using Acclaim for digital badges on LinkedIn and elsewhere? https://www.youracclaim.com/

I have links to my Acclaim badges on my LinkedIn profile but not everyone does, so there needs to be a formal / official mechanism to validate people's certifications.

EDIT: also there's something to be said for using the actual vendor's validation mechanism versus a third party's.

Yes, I've put them on my profile too, but the sad fact is that not everyone grasps the significance. Employers and their HR should make use of the means provided by the organizations to validate certifications, so I usually facilitate validation information to the employer if needed, with the links below : -

I don't think that was ever a "thing."

(And, if it was, it shouldn't have been ...)

Geeez, Erwin. He wasn't even armed.
I don't care. I have lots of ammo and he was wearing a tie.
