Certificates
Recent research completed by AMBA & BGA asked employers to rate important factors when considering (MBA) graduates for their open positions. The category identified as the most important was if an applicant came from a well-respected, accredited Business School.
By purchasing an AMBA digital certificate, as a graduate from an AMBA-accredited programme, you can effortlessly highlight the value of your MBA degree to employers and others in your professional network, and demonstrate that you completed your studies at one of the world’s top Business Schools for MBA programmes.

One of the valuable features of a digital badge is your ability to share this with your networks. Within the Accredible platform, which holds your credentials there are options to share your badge to LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook as a post. There is also the option of including this badge under the education or certification area within your LinkedIn profile.
Another way you can promote your membership, is by sharing your badge in email signatures or embed your badge on your CV/resume.
Employers and others within your professional network can easily verify your credentials – whether it is a digital badge or certificate. Once you share this (through any of the options above), a viewer can verify its authenticity by searching your unique ID or clicking the link, which directs the verifying party to view the full details of your badge/certificate.
To further strengthen the verification of your AMBA/BGA membership badge or degree certificate, Accredible utilises Blockchain technology to ensure that credentials remain uneditable and fraud-proof.
