Course Completion Badges

What are Course Completion Badges?

We are committed to providing you with tools necessary to support your education and career development goals. We understand that communicating your credentials in an ever-expanding online marketplace can be challenging. That is why Ansys Innovation Courses have partnered with Credly’s Acclaim platform to provide you with a digital version of your credentials. Digital badges can be used in email signatures or digital resumes, and on social media sites such as LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter. This digital image contains verified metadata that describes your participation in our courses and the topics and skills that were covered within them.
