What are the benefits of a digital badge?
- A web-enabled version of your achievements that can be shared online and in your email signature
- A more efficient way of posting to social media platforms
- When someone clicks on the badge, they are brought to a page that includes a description of the award, the date it was received, and an excerpt from the award nomination (if included in badge information submission in step 1 below)
How does it work?
- Engagement and Affinity Group leaders submit awardee information here (the “awards” section of the HBA profile), and HBA will issue the digital badge
- Recipient will receive an email inviting her/him to claim the badge
- Recipient will be directed to click the link in the email
- Recipient creates an account on the Acclaim site
- Recipient claims the badge and start sharing it on their platforms of choice
