For more than 100 years, MSA has remained focused on the singular mission that men and women may work in safety, and that they, their families, and their communities may live in health throughout the world. MSA Certified Training Courses are an important part of this mission.

For safety professionals, showcasing qualifications, skills, and commitment to education can help enhance individual profiles and identify leaders in the field.

One way to do this is with MSA Training Digital Badges, which are now available for select MSA in-person and online certified training courses.

What Are Digital Badges?

Digital badges are secure, verifiable credentials that recognize achievements in professional training and development. Unlike traditional paper certificates that can potentially be misplaced or hard to verify, digital badges are encrypted and stored online, making them accessible anytime, anywhere. They represent qualifications in a visual, digital format that can be easily shared across professional platforms such as LinkedIn profiles and email signatures.

Why Should Safety Professionals Use Digital Badges?

Digital badges do more than just certify completion—they tell the story of ongoing commitment to workplace safety and professional development. Key features of MSA Digital Badges include:

1. Instant Verification

Each badge comes with built-in authentication features, adding a layer of trust and transparency, proving that training is not only legitimate but also current.

2. User-Friendly Online Access

With digital badges, users can access credentials on any mobile phone or other device. This makes it easy to reference or share qualifications during interviews, meetings, or networking events.

3. Shareability

With just one click, MSA Digital Badges can easily be shared on social media platforms such as LinkedIn, as well as email signatures or online portfolios.

4. Enhanced Security

MSA digital credentials use advanced encryption technology to help prevent tampering or forgery. This help ensures badges maintain integrity and provide a trusted validation of skills.

5. Organized and Secure Storage

Digital credentials can be consolidated into a secure digital wallet, allowing users to keep track of complete training history in one place. This helps when updating résumés, applying for promotions, or pursuing new certifications.
