<\/i>\u00a0 What are Canvas Credentials?<\/h5>\n

Canvas Credentials are digital microcredentials, or ‘badges’, that provide digital proof of completion of an activity such as training, workshops, and other campus activities or modules.<\/p>\n

Canvas Credentials utilize embedded metadata that contains information such as the recipient of the badge, the date the badge was earned, the content completed, and verification of the badge’s legitimacy and authenticity. This protocol allows for badges to be displayed as verifiable proof of skills or training.<\/p>\n

\"A
Badges can be verified using Open Badge’s protocol.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Additionally, Canvas Credentials are built on an open standard, allowing recipients to combine badges from different providers into common collections.<\/p>\n
