WatchGuard · WG-NSE-LOCAL
Provider credential for Network Security Essentials for Locally-Managed Fireboxes. Use the official award requirements and product training alongside the selected concept practice.
Official digital record
Ask the holder to share their public provider-issued Credly badge. Import the public badge URL and check the exact credential, holder and expiry. A directory template describes an award and does not prove ownership; a manual entry alone remains unverified.
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.
