CIP digital badging with Accredible

I'm pleased to announce that we're now offering digital badging for CIPs via Accredible. Every active CIP in good standing will be receiving an email on August 1, 2018 with instructions on how to accept the digital badge, how to share via social or email, how to add to your LinkedIn profile, etc.

These digital badges are verifiable, so you can share the link with your employer to confirm your CIP status. They also expire; the CIP has always required certificants to renew every 3 years, but it will be more obvious in this interface. You can also download your CIP certificate from Accredible.

I hope all CIPs will join me in accepting the badge and sharing it proudly. One of the key ways to increase the value of the CIP is to grow the CIP community, and a great way to do that is to promote it so your colleagues and peers see it and can get a sense of how you earned it.

If you have passed the CIP exam, but do not receive this email, first, check your spam and Clutter folders! Next, check the list of active CIPs on the AIIM website. We update this every two weeks, so if you just got the CIP, it might not be there. But if it's been more than 3 years since you got the CIP, you may have lapsed. I can help you with reinstatement - ping me at jwilkins@aiim.org.

Again, we hope that this is one more way that we can provide value to you as a CIP. If you have any questions, need a name change, etc. please contact me directly at jwilkins@aiim.org.
