TL;DR
LearnWorlds and Accredible LMS integration help teams automatically issue verifiable, shareable digital certificates and badges upon course completion—avoiding manual exporting, emailing, or admin overhead.
Best for: L&D, HR, compliance, enablement, internal academies, partner certification, and customer education teams who need audit-friendly proof of completion and a credential experience learners can share.
What you’ll need: an active Accredible account with an Accredible API token available to connect.
What teams ask before connecting
Are credentials still valid if we cancel LearnWorlds?
Yes–credentials are hosted and verified through Accredible, so the credential URLs and verification live on the credential platform (not inside your LMS). In practice, this reduces the risk of “lost proof” if your LMS changes.
Can learners share credentials on LinkedIn?
Accredible is designed for sharing and verification (including social sharing workflows). This matters when credentials are part of employer brand, partner tiers, or customer proof-of-skill.
Do you support Open Badges/interoperability?
Accredible supports Open Badges and is listed in 1EdTech’s directory/certifications ecosystem; Accredible also publishes updates around Open Badges certification (eg Open Badges 2.0).
What syncs between LearnWorlds and Accredible
Here’s the practical view of what’s involved, so implementation owners know what to expect.
| LearnWorlds (trigger/source) | Accredible (result/destination) |
|---|---|
| Course completion (based on your LearnWorlds completion rules) | Creates/issues a credential in Accredible |
| Learner identity fields (eg name/email used in LearnWorlds) | Used to display learner information on the digital credential |
| Course/program identifiers (eg course title) | Used as credential context in Accredible |
Why this LMS Accredible integration fits your credential program
Who owns credential design—L&D, compliance, or marketing?
Credential ownership can sit with L&D, Compliance, or Marketing, because the credential design/templates live in Accredible, while LearnWorlds controls the learning and completion rules. That makes it easy to align brand standards and required compliance language without changing your course build.
Do you need expiration/renewal workflows (for compliance recertification)?
If you run recertification cycles, you can set credentials to expire in Accredible, then use LearnWorlds to deliver the renewal course. When learners complete the renewal training in LearnWorlds, a new/updated credential is automatically issued via Accredible.
What should learners receive: badge URL, PDF-style certificate, or both?
Learners get a secure, verifiable credential URL that’s ideal for sharing on LinkedIn. From that same credential page, they can also download/print a PDF certificate. You can offer both without manual admin work.
How to set up the LearnWorlds Accredible integration (4 steps)
Typical setup time: ~10–20 minutes for a standard connection + first credential mapping (excluding credential design time).
Step 1
In LearnWorlds, go to Settings → Integrations → Digital Credentials and find Accredible. Click Activate to enable the integration.
Step 2
In Accredible, generate/copy your API token.
Step 3
Paste the API token into LearnWorlds and Save. (There may also be a region setting depending on how your Accredible account is hosted.)
Step 4
Test end-to-end by completing a course using a learner test account and confirming the credential is issued as expected.

What you can do with LearnWorlds + Accredible

Automate the issuance of digital credentials at key learner milestones
Automatically trigger digital credentials, like badges and certificates, when learners reach predefined milestones. Use badges for gamification and to recognize progress. Issue digital certificates to formally recognize achievement.
Standardize credential integrity across every program and brand
For internal training and compliance, consistency and branding matter: deliver trusted, verifiable credentials with standardized formats and flexible brand customization across every program and audience.
Issue badges for role paths, not just “course done”

FAQs: LearnWorlds and Accredible
LearnWorlds supports an active native integration with Accredible, so you can issue digital credentials automatically when a learner completes a milestone (based on your completion rules).
Instead of exporting completion lists, LearnWorlds triggers credential issuance, and Accredible delivers the credential experience (verification + sharing) to the learner—making it a strong option if you’re evaluating an Accredible setup for certification or proof-of-completion workflows.
Learn how to integrate Accredible with your LearnWorlds school.
With LearnWorlds + Accredible, you can issue a range of credentials typically expected from a digital credentials LMS approach, including:
- Digital certificates (completion certificates that learners can access/share)
- Digital badges (shareable achievements that can represent skills, levels, or program milestones)
- Accredible Open Badges options (Open Badges-style credentials with embedded metadata, depending on how you configure your credential in Accredible)
If your goal is to issue digital certificates in an LMS at scale (internal training, partner certification, customer education), Accredible helps make the credential portable and shareable beyond the course itself.
Setting up this digital badge integration is typically admin-led (meaning no dev is required for a standard setup):
- Enable Accredible from your LearnWorlds admin Integrations area
- Generate an API token in Accredible
- Paste the token into LearnWorlds and save
- Map the right course/completion trigger to the right credential template
- Run a test completion with a learner test account
Yes. Accredible is built to support credential sharing and verification, and LinkedIn sharing is one of the most common reasons teams choose it over issuing a static PDF certificate.
For partner programs and customer academies, this is especially valuable because learner sharing can create visible proof of training completion (and in many cases, public social proof for your program).
It depends on your LearnWorlds plan packaging for Digital Credentials and your Accredible subscription. There are two parts you need to consider:
- Your LearnWorlds plan (the integration is available in the Pro tier and above)
- Your Accredible subscription (credential creation/issuance is handled in Accredible)
Explore LearnWorlds pricing.
Accredible and Credly are both credential platforms, but they can differ in:
- The ecosystem they’re commonly used in (enterprise credential programs vs training-provider programs)
- How credential templates, verification, and sharing workflows are managed
- How well they fit your specific use case (partner tiers, customer education badges, compliance proof, etc.)
If you need the Accredible integration specifically and a credential experience tightly tied to course completion, then Accredible is the relevant comparison point.
If you’re deciding between platforms, start with your constraints: Open Badges requirements, verification needs, LinkedIn sharing expectations, and whether you want a credential-first platform.
Explore the Accredible and Credly integrations.
You can support expiry/renewal workflows, yet “automatic recertification” usually depends on how you design the full process across both systems:
- Credential expiry is typically configured at the credential level (in the credential platform rules/design)
- Recertification is usually driven by your training ops workflow in LearnWorlds (eg re-enrolling users in a renewal course, using reminders, or issuing a new credential when the renewal course is completed)
If you need strict compliance recertification (expiry, renewals, and audit trails), treat this as a requirements check and validate the exact workflow.
Learn how to monetize micro-credentials online.
This is an important governance question for any digital credentials workflow. In most credential-platform models, issued credentials are hosted and verified through the credential platform, so access/retention depends on the platform’s policies and your account status.
If credential permanence is a high-stakes requirement (compliance, professional certification, partner tiers), confirm retention and learner-access expectations directly as part of your rollout plan—especially before issuing at scale.
On its website, Accredible confirms that issued digital credentials remain active even if you cancel your Accredible account, as long as you have not put an expiration date on them.
