    Introducing Broadcom Mainframe Digital Badges, the Modern Credential that Validates Your Skills and Achievements!

    We're excited to announce the launch of the Broadcom Mainframe Digital Badge Program pilot for CA Datacom, CA IDMS and CA Endevor.  A digital badge is a simple way for you to share your accomplishments and experience. It's a way for your colleagues to see – and trust – your qualifications and expertise with Broadcom Mainframe products.

    You can attach your badge to a website, email signature, and to your social network, and with one simple click, employers and other interested parties can easily view and verify your skills and expertise.

    Broadcom has partnered with Credly, an Industry-leading Digital Badging platform vendor, so you can easily manage and share your badges in your email signature and across social media profiles, such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, and WhatsApp, using their Acclaim badging platform.

    To get started, go here to learn more about the program.  Also, check out the list of badges you may earn on the Broadcom page on the Credly/Acclaim platform.  Each badge has defined the "Earning Criteria" and requirements.  Please note that we have just launched this badging program and the list of available badges will increase going forward.



    • An active maintenance contract is required to access Mainframe web-based training and knowledge assessment tests to earn a badge.
    • Courses are available 24 hours after log-in for new users or existing users who have not accessed Learning@Broadcom in three months or more.
    • For more information about accessing Learning@Broadcom, please refer to this guide

    It looks like the IDMS certification isn't on the site. I searched for IDMS and the course code. Neither appear so I assume they haven't been loaded yet.

    Hi Mike,  If it's been a while or the first time you're logging into Learning@Broadcom, it may take 24-48 hours to authenticate your account.  You should have access to the courses and tests thereafter.  ~ Donna

    Hello Fernando,
       
    Yes, it is exciting!  An active maintenance contract is required to access Mainframe web-based training and knowledge assessment tests to earn a badge.  Other than this requirement, there is no additional cost.

    Regards,
    Donna
