Yeah, if you go to apply to join the group and send the email you SHOULD be good, but it seems like Patrick isn’t very on top of LinkedIn, SCP Badging, OR the “Mythical” smiles Welcome Kits. Compared to most of us you’re killin it rj! I’m still waiting on all three.
NOW, just for those of you waiting to join the group, you can always add the certification to your profile<https://www.linkedin.com/profile/edit> just go down to certifications, click add and under “Certification Authority” Enter SolarWinds and it will show the SolarWinds logo. Put in your SCP number for License Number and enter “SolarWinds Certified Professional” for the Certification Name. I didn’t put a certification URL for mine though.
Also keep in mind that the cert is valid for five (5) years! Which LinkedIn will also let you enter.
