If you've earned a OneStream Certification, be sure to explore the associated skills listed in Credly! These skills correlate to Pearson's Ontology, a massive, constantly updated map that connects skills to real occupations based on millions of job postings worldwide. Select a Skill from the list.Here's why that's worth a click: select any skill on your badge, and Credly will surface the trends and occupations tied to it - a quick way to see how your certification connects to the broader job market, not just to OneStream. A couple things to keep in mind. Only skills with the checkmark are matched to the ontology, so if one of your skills doesn't show it yet, that's expected - not every skill has been mapped. And how much shows up can vary from skill to skill, so don't be surprised if some pages are richer than others. Give it a try on your own digital credential- it's an easy way to see your certification in a bigger context! Check out this brief video from Credly for a little explanat

I've got two quick updates to share to wrap this week up — one brand-new space to check out, and one small habit I'd love every topic author to build into their community routine.Introducing: Community Q&AEver wondered where to post something, how to earn a certification badge, or why you're not getting notifications? I've heard you, and I've built a home for those questions: Community Q&A, now live under the Welcome section.This space is specifically for questions about using the OneStream Community itself — things like:"Where do I find forums for a specific product area?" "How do I update my profile or notification settings?" "Why isn't my post showing up?" "How does the certification badge system work?"It's not meant to replace our product forums like Application Build, Reporting, or Rules — those are still the right place for OneStream technical questions. Think of Community Q&A as your front desk: if you're not sure where something belongs, or you just need help naviga
