Technology is evolving rapidly, and technical professionals need to keep their skills up-to-date in order to help their organizations stay competitive. Additionally, many engineers need continuing education units (CEUs) and professional development hours (PDHs) to maintain their engineering licenses. With many engineers seeking training programs that offer these credits, IEEE can help you provide these benefits to your professionals through the IEEE Credentialing Program.
All applications for the IEEE Credentialing Program are accepted online. Access the online application.

You already know that IEEE is an organization that brings together some of the best and brightest minds in engineering today. IEEE credentials guarantee that your education program offers some of the most relevant content that engineers need to stay ahead in their fields. IEEE will review the content of your learning event ahead of time so that attendees know that it aligns with the high standards of IEEE. An IEEE credential is a guarantee of educational quality and a credential that engineers can proudly share.
IEEE maintains an official registry of all credentials awarded. This makes accounting to state licensing boards an easier task for engineers. It also helps IEEE organizational units keep track of their participants.
IEEE Credentialing Program adds value to your educational event and helps your program stand out from the competition. As an organization or educational content provider, you can provide IEEE credentials that offer CEUs, PDHs, and Credentials of Completion at your next learning event or virtual conference.
External organizations interested in offering IEEE certificates at events that are not sponsored by IEEE should fill out the approved provider application first. If you are approved, you may submit unlimited applications for your events.
IEEE organizational units, Societies, Sections, and Chapters are also eligible to offer IEEE credentials for qualified events and do not need to apply to become an approved provider.
The application process is online and easy to use. Pay per credential or select from bulk discount pricing options for larger events.
Educational Activities (EA) is now offering digital badges for eLearning course programs on the IEEE Learning Network (ILN) and some qualifying virtual training events! Digital badges contain embedded metadata within the image that reflects the specific skills earned and can be shared online.
IEEE Digital Badging Program for Continuing Professional Education
Badges are tied to individual bodies of knowledge that can be received after successful completion of a course program or series of events (virtual and/or live). Digital badges will only be awarded to individuals who complete an entire course program through the IEEE Learning Network (ILN).
Course programs that offer digital badges:
IEEE English for Technical Professionals
Artificial Intelligence Standards: Roadmap for Ethical and Responsible Digital Environments
Automotive Cyber Security: Protecting the Vehicular Network
Bridging the 4G/5G Gap: Telecommunications Roadmap for Implementation
Machine Learning: Predictive Analysis for Business Decisions
Benefits of Digital Badging:
How Can I Request a Digital Badge?
After learners successfully complete an IEEE Learning Network (ILN) eligible course program, they can email eab-ceuadmin@ieee.org requesting the digital badge. IEEE EA will verify the learner’s transcript in ILN and issue the badge via Accredible. These credentials are then portable and can be displayed across most social media platforms, such as LinkedIn.
Individuals can access their credential transcript (badges and certificates) through the Accredible credential wallet. Employers and learners can confirm the validity of the credential through Accredible at no extra charge.
