Recognition Badges

Badges are awarded automatically when two conditions are both met: a profile reaches 10 or more verified recognitions, and two specific signals appear consistently across them.
Signals are chosen by the recogniser — not the profile owner. A badge cannot be requested or self-declared. It reflects what people genuinely and repeatedly recognise about how someone works.
Each badge is specific to a professional vertical. A property agent earns Property badges, a teacher earns Education badges. The signals that matter in each field are different — the badges reflect that.
