Celebrate your achievement: claim your WorldSkills Shanghai 2026 digital badge

Almost 3,000 WorldSkills Champions, Experts, Skill Competition Managers, Interpreters, Team Leaders, Workshop Managers, and Delegates have already claimed their WorldSkills Digital Badge as a signal of their contribution to the 48th WorldSkills Competition.

The badges are digital images with WorldSkills-verified metadata embedded within them. They can be used in email signatures or digital resumés, as well as added to social media profiles including LinkedIn, Facebook, and X.

Digital badges are available for those who took part in WorldSkills Shanghai 2026, as well as WorldSkills Abu Dhabi 2017, WorldSkills Kazan 2019, WorldSkills Competition 2022 Special Edition, and WorldSkills Lyon 2024.

Digital badges were first released in 2022. Since their launch, more than 10,000 people from the WorldSkills community have downloaded them as a way to demonstrate their skills excellence during job interviews and applications for further study. The Digital Badges are powered by Credly, a brand owned by WorldSkills Global Partner Pearson.
