Ask the holder for the provider-issued certificate, public badge or transcript link. Use the issuer's guidance to confirm the exact award, holder and validity. A dedicated verification lookup has not yet been confirmed for this provider.

If your award has a public Credly badge, you can import its URL. CertSprout automatically checks supported Credly and Microsoft Learn records. Provider-site lookups and manually attached links do not automatically mark a credential verified. A public record confirms the award; it does not prove the signed-in user owns it.
