I suggest that the SME badge and Trailblazer badge have a more clearer description on how they can be achieved or receive a 'no longer available' note.
I've seen a couple of older threads regarding the criteria, but no official replies from PMI's engagement specialists.
Without properly available criteria, gaming is not as effective as it could/should be Saving Changes...

Thanks Heather, that makes sense then, as I haven’t seen anyone (Unless I missed something), being awarded those badges since I joined late 2015.
If Rami did not receive this Trailblazer badge, who will receive it? :-)

That’s nice of you to say, I appreciate it very much and it means a lot to me.
Unfortunately, for some reason, Rami goes always unnoticed in this community, maybe not by members as I know you all appreciate me and I appreciate you the same way and more.
Anyways, l’d rather not go into details - I got used to it and a badge won’t change anything for me. I do what I do because I love giving back to the profession and learn from professionals like yourself.
The only difference is that when you become busier, you need to prioritize where to best direct your efforts and that’s what I am trying to figure out now, because it will be a crazy busy year for me.
