Canvas Credentials Data Sheet

Powered by metadata, Canvas Credentials give learners verifiable credentials they can carry with them throughout their learning experience and showcase throughout their professional careers. Learn how your institution can seamlessly award stackable, portable, and shareable credentials.

In today’s competitive landscape, students and professionals need more than just a degree to stand out—they need a verifiable way to showcase their specific skills and achievements. Canvas Credentials provides a powerful, easy-to-use digital badging platform that turns learning milestones into portable, data-rich records. By using the Open Badges standard, institutions can recognize everything from core academic success to specialized soft skills, giving learners a clear advantage as they transition from the classroom to the workforce.

The beauty of Canvas Credentials lies in its ability to create structured, stackable learning pathways that motivate students to keep growing. Educators can automate the awarding process, ensuring that as soon as a milestone is met, the learner receives instant recognition they can share on social media or professional networks. This transparency doesn't just benefit the student; it provides institutions with deep insights into program alignment and skill attainment. By making achievements visible and verifiable, Canvas Credentials empowers learners to own their journey and helps schools prove the real-world value of their programs.
