Every organization on LinkedIn is associated with a Company ID. When setting up your organization on Credly's Acclaim platform, we will add your organization's LinkedIn Company ID.

When your earners share their badge to their LinkedIn profile, this ID will auto-populate as the "Issuing Organization" to create a seamless sharing experience.
