Supporting Employers and Businesses

Recognise Real Skills. Clearly and Credibly.

In partnership with the Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority, we offer a free, ready‑to‑use Workplace Digital Badge Suite for employers.

Digital badges are modern, shareable credentials that show when an individual has demonstrated a specific skill. They provide clear evidence of learning and achievement that can be used for progression, appraisal, and recruitment

Region of Learning works with employers across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough to help you recognise skills, develop your workforce, and strengthen your future talent pipeline.

Whether you are a small business or a large organisation, we offer practical, no‑cost support that aligns with regional workforce priorities and the Local Skills Improvement Plan (LSIP).

Our workplace badges help you to:

✅ Recognise and reward skills already demonstrated by your staff
✅ Boost morale, motivation, and retention
✅ Clearly evidence skills for appraisals, progression, and job applications
✅ Strengthen your talent pipeline in line with regional workforce needs

Badges are portable and can be shared on LinkedIn, added to CVs, or used as verified evidence during internal reviews.

Employers can issue a suite of pre‑designed digital badges that recognise key transferable and workplace skills.

All badges are quality‑assured
Aligned to regional workforce priorities and LSIP skills
Designed to be flexible and easy to embed into existing workplace practices

There is no cost to employers.

Getting started is simple:
