OKA, the leading certification provider of assessment tools around topics such as Emotional Intelligence, Motivation, Values, Change, Influence, and Resilience launched a new digital badging program for its certification holders. Individuals who complete the required courses and earn a passing score on the exam will earn an OKA digital credential.
“By providing a secure, digital representation of OKA certifications, our certified professionals can more easily manage, share and make use of their credentials within their networks, across social media platforms and on their resumes,” said Hile Rutledge, President of OKA. “For employers, our new digital badges make it easy to identify individuals with the skills they need to build an effective training function and to verify that those skills are relevant and up-to-date.”
OKA is working with Credly, the digital credentialing leader, to provide digital badges. Credly collaborates with top global training providers, credential issuers, associations and academic institutions that are similarly focused on the power of verified skills and achievements. Credly transforms knowledge, skills and achievements into digital credentials that empower individuals to connect with learning and career opportunities.
“Emotional intelligence, collaboration, and resilience are some of the most sought-after human skills in the workplace, and for good reason given the recent radical shifts in how and why organizations are doing the work they do,” said Jonathan Finkelstein, CEO of Credly. “There’s a perception among some that human skills can’t be trained, much less measured, but the work of organizations like OKA proves otherwise. OKA’s digital credentials provide employers with a trusted tool for building teams with the verified skills needed to guide organizations through change and growth.”
