Skills become opportunities with Parchment Digital Badges
Stack Credentials and Share Skills with Parchment Digital Badges
A learner completes a course or workshop. An employee gains experience on the job. But how do those skills and experiences become something they can prove?
Parchment Digital Badges by Instructure is a digital credentialing platform that turns accomplishments into verifiable, shareable credentials and uses labor-market data to show what those skills are worth. Learners carry their badges from program to program and post them straight to LinkedIn.
What makes Parchment Digital Badges different?
Every badge follows the Open Badges standard, so the credentials your learners earn carry the proof they need to support post-graduation success. That means every credential includes who issued it, what it connects to, and the evidence behind it. A training certificate wishes it had that power.
- Shareable badges let learners post easy-to-understand achievement maps straight to LinkedIn and other networks.
- Customizable pathways let organizations stack, sort, and organize achievements into pathways that make sense for their programs.
- Aligned badges track a learner's progress against real industry and education standards.
- Stackable pathways move learners through programs within an institution, an employer, or beyond.
- Automated rules issue credentials the moment a learner meets the criteria, no manual work required.
- Market-aligned data shows the real-world value of the skills behind every badge, using EMSI labor-market insights.
