As AI displaces some jobs and creates new ones, one thing becomes unavoidable: skill verification.

Sometimes that’s micro-credentials. Sometimes it’s badges. Sometimes it’s reputation.

The real question isn’t how many credentials you have, it’s:

What makes you trust that a credential actually certifies what it claims to certify? How do you know who issued it is real? And why do you trust them?
