ICON members now have the opportunity to earn a digital credential - the ICON Practitioner Badge - to showcase your skills as a B2B marketing/BD/communications professional.

Once earned, your badge can be shared on LinkedIn and added to your CV, to show the world your achievement.

To earn your ICON Practitioner Badge, simply view four webinars from our webinar library which have been flagged as eligible and complete the short assessment.

The assessments will be collated at the end of each quarter at which time you will be sent your ICON Practitioner Badge if you have qualified.
Credit for assessments completed in one quarter will be carried over to the next until you have finished four eligible sessions in the year.

After the webinar has been held, a follow-up email with links to the recording and the assessment questions will be sent to all registered participants. Alternatively there are links to the assessment questions next to the recordings in the webinar library.
