The NEXT Academy has a digital badging program for its certification holders.

“By providing a secure, digital representation of The NEXT Academy certifications, our construction leaders can more easily manage, share and make use of their credentials within their networks, across social media platforms and on their resumes,” said, Cody Phillips, Co-Creator of The NEXT Academy. “For employers, our new digital badges make it easy to identify individuals with the skills they need to help build a more profitable and sustainable construction firm and to verify that those skills are relevant and up-to-date.”

The NEXT Academy is working with Credly by Pearson 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.
