Case managers earning the CCM credential receive a digital badge as credible proof of this gold-standard designation. The badge is issued automatically as a result of the integration through the Association Management System (AMS) APIs. Certified Case Managers using the digital badge may share it on social media (e.g., Facebook, LinkedIn), on a webpage or in their email signature. The digital badge is more than just a logo placed in an email signature. When someone clicks on the shared badge (image), they are redirected to a custom profile webpage (CCMC-owned and hosted) which verifies their claim of certification.
