HR Glossary
What is Digital Badge?
A verified, portable digital credential that represents a specific skill, competency, or achievement, containing embedded metadata about the issuer, criteria, and evidence of the accomplishment.
Why it matters in hiring
Digital Badge comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
