What is a digital credential?

Digital credentials are web-based confirmations of your accomplishment. Your digital credential will enable you to:

  • Showcase your achievement to your network. You can display your digital credential on your LinkedIn profile, other social media platforms, career websites, online resume, or as part of your digital signature.
  • Validate your qualifications to potential employers. Mindful Society Global Institute credentials are fully authenticated and secure, ensuring that they offer instant verification of your credential. As a result, your digital credential can help to expedite the employer verification process, allowing you to quickly validate your qualifications to potential employers.
  • Communicate a detailed description of the work involved in earning your certification. Your digital credential provides a detailed account of your acquired expertise, as it encompasses a course overview and a comprehensive list of core competencies and skills.
