# PMI Certification Digital Badge Program

Our globally recognized PMI certifications show that you have the knowledge, skills and experience to contribute to your success. Celebrate your accomplishment and inspire the next generation of project professionals.

Verify your PMI certification with an official badge, wherever and whenever you choose! We've partnered with Credly to provide a digital badge that proudly displays your professional qualifications and achievements. Plus, your badge comes with exclusive job market information, so you can move your career forward with confidence.

## How do I claim my badge?

Within 1-2 business days of earning your certification, you'll receive an email from Credly with instructions on how to accept your digital badge. Click the accept button in the email. From there, you'll be taken to the Credly website where you can create an account and claim your badge. Please use the same email address you use for your PMI account to create your Credly Account.
If you don't get an email from Credly within 3 business days of earning your certification, or if you need additional support, please [Contact Us](https://www.pmi.org/about/contact) or Credly account support.

## Show off your certification

Your digital badge is a verification of your certification, skills, and qualifications. It shines light on your accomplishments among colleagues, friends or potential employers and gives the opportunity to:

- Feel empowered that you earned a distinguished professional credential
- Prove your expertise and capabilities associated with the certification

- Foster continuous learning and development necessary to actively maintain the certification
