Educational publisher Pearson on Monday said it had bought the remaining 80% of skills verification operator Credly it does not own for an undisclosed sum.
Credly runs a platform for organisations, companies, educational institutions and learners to award digital credentials that verify an individual’s skills.
“More than 2000 organisations use Credly and since its inception, the company has issued over 50 million credentials to 25 million people, making it the world’s largest professional credentialing business,” Pearson said in a statement.
