Skill Validation

Skill validation: credentials and certifications

Align skills development with business outcomes.

Red Hat credentials and certifications (formerly accreditation) enable our partners to validate critical sales, technical, and delivery skills efficiently.

Digital badging

After successfully achieving a Red Hat Credential or a Red Hat Certification, Red Hat will issue you a digital badge. When someone views your Red Hat digital badge, they can learn more about your skills and verify the badge’s authenticity, providing an easy way for someone to confirm your Red Hat skills and knowledge. Learn more about Red Hat's digital credentialing program and see all of Red Hat’s digital badges here.
