With the company's digital credentials, learners can earn and share their validated skills to connect with career pathways and learning opportunities.

"With the integration of digital credentials into our IT Pro Challenges, learners can now digitally validate the skills they demonstrate through our challenges and receive tangible benefits of their hard work to encourage them to continue their learning," said Corey Hynes, CEO of Learn on Demand Systems. "Our partners know that digital credentials can be a powerful way to engage and motivate learning, while capturing critical data that enables organizations to quantify and close skills gaps."
