What is Canvas Credentials?

Canvas Credentials is a subscription service that allows badge program administrators to advance their badging system using a set of more sophisticated tools. These features include Canvas Credentials Pathways, QR and claim codes, reporting and analytics, and unlimited bulk awards.

Canvas Credentials includes all the features of Canvas Badges and extends the functionality of Canvas Badges; more informaton on these features can be found in Comparing Canvas Badges Basic and Canvas Credentials.

Canvas Credentials features can be used with our LTIs for Canvas and other LMSs.

  • Badges are a digital award associated with an image and some metadata providing information about a user's competencies and involvements.
  • Canvas Credentials Pathways allows organizations and issuers to combine and connect Open Badges from multiple sources into a meaningful pathway for learners.
  • QR and claim codes make participation easy! Create a scavenger hunt, post QR codes on your website or show them at events to engage your audience. Don't have a Canvas LMS? Use QR codes in Google Classrooms, Moodle, Blackboard or any other digital platform where you want to award badges.
  • Unlimited bulk awards let you recognize the achievements of an unlimited number of people. Award as many badges as you like to any size group of recipients.
  • Reporting and analytics put relevant data into the hands of badge program administrators. Pro subscribers can access analytics from their Canvas Credentials account and/or from a Canvas course or subs-account.
  • Incorporate Emsi skills to badges issued by Canvas Credentials issuers that can be linked with skills so that links to job market data appear when those badges are viewed or shared.
