Already saving 60 hours of post-event work in its first activation, the new integration enables event producers to automate delivery of verifiable CE certificates to attendees.
SEATTLE, May 19, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Validar, a leading provider of event technology solutions, today announced a new integration with Accredible, the world's leading digital badging platform. The integration connects Validar's session attendance tracking directly to Accredible's credentialing platform, automating the post-event delivery of verifiable continuing education certificates to attendees.
For event producers managing continuing education, post-event certificate delivery has long been a labor-intensive process — pulling attendance reports, consolidating session data per attendee, reconciling exceptions, and producing and distributing certificates. For large events, this work routinely runs into dozens of hours.
With this integration, that process is fully automated. Validar's session attendance data — whether captured by scanning, RFID, or BLE — is pushed to Accredible, which generates and distributes branded digital certificates to attendees. Whether credit is earned through session attendance alone or requires meeting a minimum time threshold, Validar delivers the verified data, and Accredible handles the rest. Attendees receive a verifiable digital credential — accessible via a personal link, shareable to LinkedIn and other professional networks, and permanently verifiable by employers or CE authorities — rather than a static document that ends up sitting in an inbox.
"By combining our session tracking with Accredible's credentialing platform, we can help event producers and associations around the world eliminate the manual work that stands between their attendees and the recognition they've earned," said Victor Kippes, CEO of Validar.
The 2026 ABVP Symposium — the annual conference of the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners, held April 9–12, 2026 — was the first event to run on the integration. ABVP certifies veterinary practitioners across species-specific areas of care, drawing leading professionals from around the world to pursue CE credits toward certification. MJB Management, which produces the Symposium, worked with Validar and Accredible to implement the integration ahead of the event — and the results were immediate.
"It's feeling pretty priceless right now. Not only did it save my team time, but it also saved my project manager time from massaging an export from our registration platform, Swoogo. I can export all the data — including any corrections people ask for — which makes my reporting to our CE authority even better," said Marisa Hackemann, CEO of MJB Management. "I would imagine that for the totality of the event, it saved approximately 60 hours of work in total."
"Earning CE credits at an event is real professional work — attendees deserve recognition they can do something with," said Dan Theckston, Chief Customer Officer of Accredible. "With this integration, attendees receive branded, verifiable digital credentials they can share on LinkedIn the moment the event wraps, turning every credential into visibility for the recipient and proof of program value for the organizations running these events."
