Here's a quick guide to engage with your recipients on LinkedIn
LinkedIn is a powerful platform for professionals to showcase their skills and achievements.

Identifying Users Who Added and Shared Their Credentials
To identify users who have added their credentials and shared them as posts, follow these methods:
A. Added to "Licenses and Certifications":
Use Boolean Search:- Go to the LinkedIn search feature
- Type '"Credential Name" AND "Your Company" ' to search for profiles that mention both the above terms.
In the example below, the searched terms were "Project management for beginners" AND "Virtualbadge.io"
This is how it would look when you click on "Jane Doe's" profile:
B. Shared as a post:
- Use LinkedIn’s search feature to find posts related to specific certifications.
- Type keywords related to the certification in the search bar, such as the hashtags specific to the credential. You can define the hashtags that should be used in the posts directly form your Virtualbadge.io dashboard.
- Filter results by "Posts" to see all related posts.
Once you find relevant posts, engage with them by liking, commenting, or sharing. This not only acknowledges the achievement but also increases the visibility of the post within your network.
