Recognising Achievements and Contributions

Showcase your learning, membership and achievements online!

A digital badge is an indicator of achievement, like a certificate, that can be displayed, accessed and verified online. As digital badges have become a common currency to recognise skills, experience and achievements, GBPN has adopted this paper-free form of recognition and developed three categories of badges: Champions, Experts, and Scholars.

GBPN CLIMATE CHAMPIONS
