  3. In the left-hand sidebar menu, click on 'Visibility.'

Different Visibility Options

Search Engines

By unchecking the box in this section, the credentials issued in this group will no longer be visible in Google Searches or any other search engine result. Please bear in mind that it will take 2-3 weeks for this change in visibility to take effect.

Issuer Page

There may be a reason to hide a credential from your Issuer Page; maybe you use one of your groups for testing! In which case, use this setting here to switch off the visibility of this group to hide it from your Issuer Page.

CourseFinder

CourseFinder is a public recommendation engine that helps students discover new courses and certifications. If there is a reason you would prefer the credentials from this group to not be visible on CourseFinder, then you can hide them by unchecking the box in this section.
