      How to Add Your Digital Credentials to Your Email Signature

      Why Add Credentials to Your Email Signature?

      Your Territorium LifeJourney credentials are more than just an image, they’re verifiable digital records of your achievements. Adding them to your email signature helps you:

      • Showcase your skills to colleagues, employers, and partners.

      • Promote credibility by linking to a secure, verifiable source.

      • Spread awareness of your institution’s credentialing program and the LifeJourney platform.

      • Avoid confusion from static screenshots that can’t be clicked or validated.

      When you include your credential properly, anyone who receives your email can click through to view and verify it instantly.

      Best Practices for Displaying Credentials

      • Do not use a screenshot of the credential. Screenshots look nice but don’t link back to verification.

      • Always use the official credential link. This ensures your credential remains verifiable and up to date.

      • Keep your signature clean. Use a small, properly sized credential icon next to your contact details rather than a large image.

      • Consider including a short text line. Example: “View my verified credential in Digital Marketing”.

      Quick Tips

      • Use only one or two credentials in your signature to keep it professional.
