FAAC® Digital Badge

A digital badge is an electronic image linked to important information about your certification. It serves as both recognition and validation of your achievement.

Your badge allows you to easily show your colleagues, friends, or potential employers:

  • When you earned the certification and when it expires.
  • What it takes to be eligible for the certification.
  • What content areas are covered on the exam.
  • The purpose of the certification.
  • How the certification program is governed.

You can share your badge on social media, in an email signature, or embed it within a website.

How do I receive my digital badge?

Shortly after you are certified, you will be sent an email with instructions for how to claim your digital badge. NASFAA utilizes the Badgr platform to house and maintain the digital badges.

You will receive an email from [email protected] to access your badge. Especially if you are newly certified, we recommend adding this email address to your "approved senders" list to facilitate delivery.

The instructions you receive will help you to create an account with Badgr to easily access your badge. Badgr will store this badge and any other badges you've earned in their "Backpack" feature.

How do I share my digital badge?

You can share your badge by selecting the "Share" button at the top right corner of your badge webpage.
