Introduction:

Upon successful completion of a micro-credential learning experience, a digital badge is automatically awarded to the learner through Badgr credential platform. To ensure that the badges you have earned from Professional Learning Portal (PLP) are automatically added to your Badgr account, follow these steps to check whether the email address used to award your badge is verified on your Badgr account.

During badge awarding, an email address is used to identify the recipient. To claim your badge, this email address must be one of the verified email addresses on your Badgr account.
