Overview

NovoEd's Credly Integration allows for the automatic issuing of an Org's digital credential, or badge, via Credly, earned upon the completion of a NovoEd course and/or Learning Journey. Badges can be viewed in users' individual Credly accounts.

 

Permissions

  • Org Admins can enable NovoEd's Credly integration
  • Course Administrators with the Course Builder permission set can set up a Credly badge for a NovoEd course
  • Org Admins and Course Managers can set up a Credly badge for a NovoEd Learning Journey.

NOTE: A Credly Org must have an active issuing account subscription with Credly to utilize NovoEd’s Credly Integration.

Notes

  • Credly badges can be saved for NovoEd courses and learning journeys when the badge is in both active and inactive states. Before the badge can be issued to learners, the badge must be in a PUBLISH (not DRAFT) status within an active Org account on Credly.
  • A Credly badge will be revoked when a learner’s completion had been revoked within NovoEd or there was a change in completion criteria within the NovoEd course or learning journey.
