5 min reading time

The 2024 State of Credentialing report is based on two surveys conducted in the spring of 2024 by Mantis Research in partnership with Accredible. One survey was of 193 education and training leaders (issuers) who work for organizations that issue credentials (i.e., certificates and/or badges) as part of their learning programs. Respondents were sourced by Accredible and its partners via email and social media channels. 

The second survey was of 1,023 learners who participated in a course, certification program, or continuing education opportunity that awarded a credential within the past two years. Respondents were sourced via an online panel.
