How to share my credential

You can share a POK Proof of Knowledge credential directly to your LinkedIn profile or feed, copy a public link, or send it by email. First, accept the credential from the email POK sends you, then unlock the certificate with your last name. Once it is unlocked, the sharing options become available.

Accept your credential​

  1. You will receive an email from POK asking you to accept your new certificate.

  2. Click "Accept credential". A confirmation pop-up window appears.

  3. POK then sends a second email with a link to your certificate. Click "View Certificate".

Unlock your certificate​

The certificate opens in POK in encrypted form. To decrypt it, enter the last name under which the certificate was issued and click "Validate".

Once your last name is validated, the "Download" and "Share" options become active. "Download" saves the certificate to your device.

Click "Share" to see the available options.

Add it to your LinkedIn profile​

Select "Add to my LinkedIn profile". A pop-up window opens with LinkedIn's "Add LinkedIn License or Certification" section, where the certificate details are ready to save to your profile.
