How can I add a new member of staff to Credly as a Collection Manager or remove a Collection Manager that is leaving my organisation?

As organisations grow and change, it is sometimes necessary to remove Collection Managers or add new ones to your Badge Nation membership.

How many Collection Managers your organisation is entitled to have added to Credly depends on the membership package you have.

Please have your organisation’s main admin contact (named on the Membership Agreement) get in touch with us via email at [email protected] with the name and email address of the person that needs to be added to or removed from Credly as a Collection Manager.

How can I make changes to a badge after it has been published to Credly?

Once your badge has been published to Credly you will need a member of the Badge Nation team to make any changes.

Please note, any amendments made to the template will also appear on the profiles of earners who have already been issued with that badge, so you should only consider making changes that will remain relevant for previous earners of that badge.

If the changes you need to make are more drastic such as a change in the activity name, delivery / assessment method, outcomes, or content, please consider writing a new badge.

Contact us via email at [email protected] with a link to the badge and details of your desired changes and we will get these amended right away.
