Your GS1 Standards credentials
Understanding GS1 Standards is a specialized skill needed in many supply chain roles to facilitate efficient business processes. How do you demonstrate to peers, management, and prospective employers that you have verified expertise in GS1 Standards?
Several courses offered by GS1 US® allow you to not only learn GS1 Standards, but earn the credentials to prove you have completed the course materials needed to demonstrate your expertise. That’s what GS1 US Badges are all about. You can add them to your resume, your LinkedIn profile, and more. That is why we have partnered with Credly to provide you with a digital version of your credential. Backed by Pearson, the world’s leading learning company, Credly is a badging platform that provides:
- A web-enabled version of your credentials that can be shared online

While badges are simply digital image files, they are uniquely linked to data hosted on the Credly platform. This link to verified data makes them more reliable and secure than a traditional paper-based credential. It also eliminates the possibility of anyone claiming your credential and your associated identity.
Every credential and profile on Credly has a unique URL that can be shared from the platform to LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter via email, embedded in a website, XING or on a resume. You can also add your badge to an email signature. Learn more here.

Credly does not support the uploading of badges issued by other platforms.
Not at this time. The current open badge infrastructure standards do not allow for real-time verification of our badges outside the Credly platform, which is a main priority for ensuring verification. Credly is working with the open badge community on solutions for this.
