Certified Assessor verification

CCP and CCA standing comes from your public ISACA Credly badge. That badge is why assessor verdicts carry more weight — so the link has to resolve to a real, current credential.

How verification works

In Settings, paste the public open-badge URL for your CCP and/or CCA credential. Your profile display name must match the name Credly shows as “Issued to”. We fetch the badge from Credly when you submit and grant standing only when the template is a recognized CMMC Professional or Assessor badge, it has not expired, and the earner name matches. The badge must be public on Credly. Standing is checked against stored expiry on every request — after the credential expires, weighted verdicts stop until you link a current badge.

You can hold both CCP and CCA. Instructions for finding and sharing your badge: ISACA credentialing badges.

An administrator can still revoke standing if a badge is spoofed, expired, or otherwise misused. Revoking removes the extra weight from that account’s future and existing verdicts alike.

What the badge changes

A verified assessor’s verdict counts as 3 votes in the weighted score. The raw score still counts every account equally. Both numbers are shown on every example so the weighting is never hidden.

Dual CCP+CCA holders still cast one weighted vote, but appear in both the CCP and CCA cohort filters. Details: How verdicts work.
