HPass for Individuals
It helps to record and showcase our achievements and competencies within the humanitarian system.
Staff member – World Vision
Through HPass, humanitarians can store, display and share their achievements online, in the form of digital badges. Badges can be displayed publicly (or kept private if you so choose), and shared on a CV, via a link, on social media, or in an e-signature. As recruitment processes become more automated, being able to demonstrate your skills in digital form is essential in order to remain visible to recruiters and in candidate searches.
HPass digital badges are issued by various providers and provide professionally verified recognition of skills and experience in a range of areas, from technical skills to project management.
To join the thousands of humanitarians using HPass digital badging, humanitarians can set up a myHPass profile here. Or you may want to start by taking a course and earning a digital badge, after which you will be prompted to set up a profile.
Here are some badges you could start with:


Or visit kayaconnect.org and type ‘digital badge’ into the course catalogue to see what comes up!
Badges motivate learners to progress, they are internationally recognized and can be attached to your CV.
