Many Kaya courses enable you to earn HPass badges, which you can store on myHPass – an online profile specifically for humanitarians to display badges as verifiable evidence of your skills (read more about HPass here).

You can now generate a QR code which links directly to your myHPass profile, or to individual badges. 

How can I use the QR code?

This is a great way to enable employers and peers to quickly be able to view your HPass badges as verifiable evidence of your learning and skills. You can:

• Add a QR code to your CV or resume
• Add it to your e-signature
• Add it to a business card
• Add it to your social media accounts

In each, the viewer will be able to use their phone to swiftly link to your profile and badges. 

How do I generate a QR code?

• Log in to your myHPass account (if you don’t have an account you can create one here)
• Ensure your profile and badges are PUBLIC (you can make your profile public under Profile – Edit Profile – Settings, you can make individual badges public under ‘Badges’ in the top menu)
• Go to your profile and click ‘Embed code’. The QR code will appear in the top right hand corner.
• Right click and select ‘Copy image’
• Paste your QR code on your CV, e-signature etc! (you an do this using Ctrl+V)
