Adding a certificate to your LinkedIn profile is a great way to showcase your skills, professional development, and achievements. Whether it’s a short course, workshop, or official accreditation, highlighting your certifications can strengthen your profile and increase your chances of being noticed by recruiters, clients, or potential employers. LinkedIn makes it easy to share this information in just a few steps. Here is how to add certificate on Linkedin.

LinkedIn has a dedicated section called Licenses & Certifications for adding any formal certificate you’ve earned. This is the most appropriate place to list any certifications, regardless of whether they are academic, technical, or professional.

Sign in to your LinkedIn account using your email and password.

Click on your profile picture or name to view your LinkedIn profile.

If you already have this section, click the “+” (Add) icon.

If not, scroll down and click “Add profile section”, then choose “Recommended” > “Add licenses & certifications.”
