    Badges are claimed differently depending on the Microsoft service.

    1. Microsoft technical certifications (exam badges via Credly)
      • After passing a Microsoft certification exam, a digital badge is issued.
      • Look for an email from mscert@microsoft.com or from Credly (Acclaim platform). The email contains a link to create an account and accept the badge.
      • If the email cannot be found, go to the Acclaim platform site and create an account using the same email address that is on file with Microsoft.
      • Once the badge is accepted in Acclaim/Credly, it can be shared to LinkedIn, social channels, or by email.
    2. Microsoft Learn / Viva Glint badges
      • Sign in to Microsoft Learn and complete the required training modules.
      • For Viva Glint, complete the module “Understand and share your Viva Glint results”, then fill out the Viva Glint Badge: Statement of Completion form linked at the end of the module.
      • Viva Glint verifies completion and sends a badge email from ******@credly.com to the work email provided.
      • Create or sign in to a Credly account and accept/manage the badge using Credly’s instructions.
    3. Answers in Viva (badges for Q&A activity)
      • Use Answers in Viva (in Teams) to ask and answer questions.
      • Badges are earned automatically based on activity:
        • Best Answer badge: when an answer is marked as Best Answer.
        • Seeker badge: when a question receives 3 or 10 upvotes (levels 1 and 2).
        • Scholar badge: when an answer receives 3 or 10 upvotes (levels 1 and 2).
      • Badges appear on the Achievements and awards page in Answers. They are public to the organization as long as badges are enabled.
    4. Reading Coach badges (in Microsoft Teams for Education)
      • Use Reading Coach regularly; badges are awarded automatically for milestones such as:
        • First AI-created story
        • Multiple readings with accuracy over 90%
        • Reading streaks (3, 5, 10 days)
        • 100% accuracy on a reading
      • No manual claiming is required; badges appear in the Achievements page and within the Create a story experience.

    If a certification badge or Viva Glint badge is missing after completion, check the email account used for the exam or Learn profile and ensure a Credly account exists with that same email. For issues accepting a Credly badge, contact Credly support.
