The Project Management Institute (PMI), a global leader in project management certifications, has introduced a new digital badging system for all its foundation certifications. This initiative offers professionals an easy and modern way to verify and display their achievements, making it simpler to showcase their skills in today’s digital-first world.
Through PMI’s partnership with Credly, these digital badges can now be shared on platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, email signatures, or embedded on websites. Each badge verifies the certification, the skills associated with it, and even provides valuable labor market insights such as job openings and salary data—helping professionals advance their careers.
The new badges are available for the following PMI certifications:
- Project Management Professional (PMP)®
- Program Management Professional (PgMP)®
- Portfolio Management Professional (PfMP)®
- Professional in Business Analysis (PMI-PBA)®
- Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)®
- Project Scheduling Professional (PMI-SP)®
- Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)®
- Risk Management Professional (PMI-RMP)®
These digital badges are more than just a way to display certifications; they represent real-time, verifiable credentials that potential employers, colleagues, or clients can trust. Additionally, professionals can leverage labor market insights linked to the badges to explore career opportunities that match their skill set.
